A 45-year-old male from a rural area with multiple familial problems was brought to our emergency department by the local police with alleged history of self-inflicted cut throat injury within an hour of the incident. His clothes were blood stained. The patient was calm, conscious and cooperative. His B.P. was 90/60 and pulse 110/min at the time of examination. He was not in respiratory distress on sitting up, but he became dyspnoeic on lying down. He was given intravenous fluids and I/V antibiotics on admission and blood transfusion was started.

Suicidal cut-throat injuries are either unreported or rare. Cut-throat injury patients may present with airway compromise, aspiration, and acute blood loss with hypoxemia if major blood vessels are involved. They pose initial management challenges in the casualty and for the anaesthesiologists in securing the airway. They may be fatal if timely intervention is delayed. We are reporting a case of suicidal injury to throat with an axe leading to an open larynx with associated injury to left submandibular gland.
