The pretracheal fascia is a layer of deep cervical fascia that extends from the hyoid bone into the thorax, enclosing the thyroid gland, trachea, and esophagus. It forms a distinct compartment in the anterior neck, separating these structures from the strap muscles and providing a pathway for the spread of infections or fluid collections. The fascia contributes to the mobility of the trachea during swallowing and breathing while supporting the visceral organs of the neck. Its anatomical relationships are particularly important during thyroid surgery and tracheostomy procedures.
