[Munchausen Syndrome].
Munchhausen Syndrome can be expressed in many different ways. We report the case of a patient with cutaneous manifestations. Possible differential diagnostics are being analysed in both dermatology and psycopathologic aspects. Although the syndrome appears frequently, its unsuspected ways of presentation make difficult to diagnose it. It is necessary the knowledge of this syndrome because of the morbid-mortality it implies.
