Abstract
Hair tourniquet (HT) syndrome is a rare disorder. Although most cases are considered to be accidental, child abuse must be considered in selected cases. HT syndrome involving the toes occurs during the time period when post-partum mothers are experiencing increased hair loss. In this article, we report a rare case of HT in a 1.5-month-old male child.
