Hanging is a popular mean for suicide in India; the attempt frequently results in death. There are few cases reported in literature in which death has occurred after a certain period of time or the patient has survived after prolonged resuscitative measures. Most of such cases develop respiratory and neurological complications immediately after the incidence. Pulmonary edema is one of the most common complications that occur in patient of survivors of suicidal hanging. We report a case of suicidal hanging who developed pulmonary edema following the incidence.
