DELAYED DEATH CAUSED BY HANGING COMPLICATED WITH THE MYOCARDIAL INFARCTION

Delayed death following hanging is a rare event. We report a suicidal case of a 29 year old man who found unconscious in his jail cell, suspended by a bed sheet. Pulmonary cardiac resuscitation was immediately performed. He survived more than two days by the life support in a hospital after which he was diagnosed as brain death and artificial ventilation ceased. Autopsy revealed generalized changes of anoxic encephalopathy and extensive myocardial infarction.
