Tracheal injuries are a rare but potentially lethal entity, most particularly in pediatrics. While standardized management allows quick therapeutic decisions in adults, based on the results of the initial bronchoscopy, the use of diagnostic exams remains unclear during childhood. We describe the case of a 6-year-old patient with a posterior tracheal wall injury due to a car accident, which was managed without tracheal endoscopy. Based on our experience and on a literature review, we suggest clarifying the management of tracheal injury in children, defining the place of computerized tomodensitometry and endoscopy in the decision process.
