[Infantile rumination].
In a 3-month-old baby with recurrent vomiting, infantile rumination syndrome was diagnosed on the basis of the typical behavior, absence of any physical or radiological findings and failure of pharmacological treatment. The therapeutic approach, which consisted of daily visits to the clinic by the mother and effective psychological support by the pediatrician and the nurses, caused prompt improvement and indicated the importance of diagnosis and treatment in the ambulatory clinic.
