Abstract
The primary symptom of a hyoid bone fracture is a sharp pain that increases with swallowing, coughing, and speaking in front of the neck. Closed hyoid fractures may be asymptomatic or may be missed in the presence of multiple injuries. It may cause clinical findings such as difficulty in swallowing and speaking, pain, limitation in mouth opening. Soft and hard tissue manifestations of neck trauma should be carefully evaluated. If there is a strong clinical suspicion of organ damage, ancillary diagnostic methods such as computed tomography, direct nasolaryngoscopy, pharyngoscopy, and laryngobronchoscopy may be useful to exclude or confirm the possibility of injury.

Abstract
Hyoid kemik kırığının birincil semptomu, yutma, öksürme ve boynun önünde konuşma ile artan keskin bir ağrıdır. Kapalı hyoid kırıkları asemptomatik olabilir veya çoklu yaralanmaların varlığında gözden kaçabilir. Yutma ve konuşma güçlüğü, ağrı, ağız açmada kısıtlılık gibi klinik bulgulara neden olabilir. Boyun travmasının yumuşak ve sert doku bulguları dikkatle değerlendirilmelidir. Güçlü bir klinik organ hasarı şüphesi varsa, bilgisayarlı tomografi, direkt nazolaringoskopi, faringoskopi ve laringobronkoskopi gibi yardımcı tanı yöntemleri, yaralanma olasılığını dışlamak veya doğrulamak için yararlı olabilir.
