Hypopharyngeal perforation following minor trauma: a case report and literature review c A rare complication of non-penetrating blunt neck trauma, hypopharyngeal perforation is mainly reported in association with high velocity road traffic accidents. The proposed injury mechanism is neck hyperextension associated with airway closure due to cervical compression against the steering wheel. Low velocity direct blows to the neck have also been associated with pharyngeal perforation. We report a case of hypopharyngeal perforation following a low velocity motorcycle accident where neither mechanism of injury was apparent. The presumedmechanism of injury in this case was cervical spine hyperextension without cervical compression.
