Mandibular Fracture Masking Hyoid Bone Fracture [PDF]
Archives of Plastic Surgery, 2014 Fractures of the hyoid bone are commonly caused by strangulation or hanging [1]. However, fractures of the hyoid bone resulting from trauma other than strangulation or hanging are rare [1]. A hyoid bone fracture is occasionally associated with clinically significant complications including airway obstruction [2,3].
