Introduction: Strangling an infant is one of the most common methods of murder. Although rare, it remains a serious condition because of its complications.
Case Report: We report a 3-month-old infant, probably strangled, who was admitted to Fann′s emergency service with altered consciousness 10 hours prior to admission. Computed tomography (CT) scan showed a range of hypodensity in the carotid territories. The victim died later of secondary complications.
Conclusion: Infant strangulation injuries are often fatal. Management must also include forensic aspects.
