The possibility of death from strangulation by a scarf getting caught in the wheel spokes of a vehicle was brought to the public\u2019s attention when the world famous dancer Isadora Duncan died on 14 September 1929. Cycle-powered rickshaws, bicycles and bullock-carts remain common forms of transport in India. However, the uncovered spokes of the vehicle wheel can trap the dupatta\/chunni\/odhani (long scarf worn around neck) worn by Indian women. A number of cases of fatal accidental strangulation have been described by different authors involving vehicles like cycle-powered rickshaws, bicycles and bullock-carts, with very few cases of reported survivors. Here we report a case of accidental strangulation involving a young girl with the dupatta getting caught in moving wheel of a bullock-cart, in which the victim survived in spite of severe injury to neck structures.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/0025802413484141","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2013,8,28]],"date-time":"2013-08-28T22:03:55Z","timestamp":1377727435000},"page":"219-222","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Survival of a victim of Isadora Duncan syndrome: A case report"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"53","author":[{"given":"Anand B","family":"Mugadlimath","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Dept. of Forensic Medicine, Ashwini Rural Medical College (ARMC), India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mandar Ramchandra","family":"Sane","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Kempegowda Institute of Medical Sciences, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sunil M","family":"Kallur","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Sri B M Patil Medical College, India"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Mallikarjun N","family":"Patil","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"S.
