title: Unusual airway injury following a motor vehicle collision.
abstract: A 16-year-old male presented to the emergency department following a single-truck motor vehicle collision. The patient was the driver of an older model pickup truck that he lost control of while driving and went off of the road. He was restrained with a lap belt only, given the age of the vehicle. His only complaint at the presenting hospital was left-sided neck pain and hoarseness.
