Abstract
Hair Tourniquet Syndrome (HTS) is defined as strangulation by a hair thread of the appendage of the human body, especially in the children population, it rarely occurs in external genitalia (clitoris, labia majora and minora). Herein, we aimed to present a rare occurrence of HTS around the labia minora in a 12-year-old child treated by excision of the cystic lesion with an uneventful follow-up. Special care should be given to every swollen appendage in children to avoid severe consequences such as amputation and disfigurement.
