title: [Mechanisms of the pulmonary congestion in ligature strangulation (IX)].
abstract: The authors summarized 10 our papers on the mechanisms of pulmonary congestion in ligature strangulation. Since old times, a hypothesis based on hypersecretion of adrenaline at agonal stage in asphyxia is well-known. From our investigations, this hypothesis seemed to be applicable to ligature strangulated guinea-pig's lungs at least.
