Prompt diagnosis and rapid airway safety are incredibly vital. A 24-year-old male patient was admitted to the emergency department due to blunt trauma to the thoracocervical region. The computed tomography taken after the first interventions detected a displaced fracture of the cricoid cartilage. In light of the patient's clinical findings, the patient was treated conservatively and non-surgically with close follow-up of the airway safety.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCricoid fracturesubcutaneous emphysemalarynx traumathoracocervical blunt traumaconservative treatmentArticle151192210.33706/jemcr.1316442WOS:001209066100007N/A
