Munchausen's syndrome: case report.
A case report of a 31-year old butcher with haemorrhagica histrionica is presented. The patient went to great lengths to induce haematemesis and fake its symptoms to gain admission to hospital. The alarming frequency of admissions and dramatic behaviour of the patient prompted this report.
