Abstract
None:
Outside of gunshot wounds, suicidal behavior involving the head is rare. This case presents a patient with a favorable outcome despite a risk of mediastinitis. The anatomy of the deep cervical spaces and the absence of an anatomical barrier to the mediastinum are important to know to prevent this complication.
