About this study
Penetrating neck trauma ranges from 5 to 10% of trauma patients and its management has been changing in the las 20 years and not all surgeons that attend this patients are trauma surgeons.

Penetrating neck trauma ranges from 5 to 10% of trauma patients and its management has been changing in the las 20 years and not all surgeons that attend this patients are trauma surgeons.
Traditionally, the management was followed by surgical treatment, but the non-therapeutic cervicotomies were ascendent to the 89%, the zone approach was established, following the Monson anatomy zones, with different indications for surgery in every zone, and finally, after the year 2000, started to publish articles on where the injury was not correlated with the zone in about a 23% of the patients.
The aim of the study is to describe the evolution of the management in a referal center and the complications of two periods, with and without a simplified no zone approach protocol.
