[A cause of multiple failures in autoplasties: cutaneous pathomimesis].
The authors report a case of cutaneous pathomimesis of the hand with severe self-mutilation, contrasting with the minimal nature of the psychiatric illness. They recall several pathogenic and therapeutic elements for this disease which, although difficult, should be managed by a multidisciplinary approach.
