University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, Dallas.

An update regarding the selective application of CT scanning in acute laryngeal trauma is presented for a period encompassing 9 years. A study group of 16 patients from a larger population of 52 patients was identified as having undergone CT scanning as part of their clinical management. A rationale is presented for the use of scanning in certain injuries, and the outcome of medical and surgical treatment is discussed.
