8%).
Tracheostomy done in 51 patients (72.
8%) neck, exploration in 20 patients (28.
5%) and a 9 patients (12.
8%) treated conservatively.
Conclusion: Zonal classification of penetrating neck injuries was helpful in the management.
Our study explains demographics and location of the injuries.
Young men involved in violence and bombing was at high risk.
Zone with involvement of trachea, larynx and pharynx were most common areas of injuries.
RecommendationsAnatomical zone classification should be used as a guideline in management of penetrating neck injuries.
(Trauma lifesaving guideline).
Tracheostory should be practiced by every doctor in casualty unit.
Team of surgeons and anaesthiologist should be always ready for any intervention with patient present to the casualty unite with a penetrating neck injury.
Emergency medicine medical practice must be presents in every casualty unit to deal with insults.
