Abstract
Introduction: Our level 1 trauma centre serves an intercity area where interpersonal violence (IPV) and deliberate self-harm (DSH) are rife. Our centre also treated patients from a major terrorist attack in 2017. The maxillofacial surgery team manages injuries to the neck which are both self-inflicted and sustained through violence. These injuries pose specific challenges. We have reviewed the demographics and management of these patients, including the use of CT angiogram.
