It is a routine protocol to examine the soft tissues, cartilage and bone tissues of the neck during post-mortem examinations performed in the cases of hanging-related deaths. Fractures of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage, as well as bleeding and ecchymoses around the first fracture are practically of great importance in establishing the case as live hanging. The styloid process is a thin bone at the base of the skull that extends downward, medially, and anteriorly from the temporal bone. Elongated variations of styloid process are encountered in society. In literature, there are no reported cases of elongated styloid process fractures due to hanging. In hanging-related deaths, along with hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage tissues, styloid process should also be evaluated for fractures.

Asıya bağlı ölümlerin postmortem incelemelerinde boyun yumuşak dokularının, kıkırdak ve kemik dokularının incelenmesi rutin bir protokoldür. Uygulamada hyoid kemik ve tiroid kıkırdak kırıkları ile kırık etrafındaki kanama ve ekimozlar canlı asının belirlenmesinde büyük öneme sahiptir. Stiloid proçes, kafa kaidesinde temporal kemikten aşağı, mediale ve anteriora doğru uzanan ince bir kemiktir. Toplumda uzun styloid proçes varyasyonlarına rastlanılmaktadır. Literatürde asıya bağlı uzun styloid proçes kırığı bulunmamaktadır. Asıya bağlı ölümlerde hyoid kemik ve tiroid kıkırdak dokuların yanısıra styloid proçeste kırık açısından değerlendirilmelidir.
