A case of Münchausen Syndrome diagnosed in an antenatal ward is reported. This patient, while pregnant, presented a variety of factitious obstetric complications to her medical attendants. Examination of the patient's hospital records threw light on the natural history of Münchausen Syndrome, and suggested the possibility that the nature of her interactions with hospitals were of aetiological significance. The implications of this hypothesis are considered.
本文报告了一例在产前病房确诊的孟乔森综合征病例。该患者在怀孕期间向医护人员呈现了各种虚构的产科并发症。对患者医院记录的检查揭示了孟乔森综合征的自然病史,并表明她与医院互动的性质可能具有病因学意义。本文对这一假设的影响进行了探讨。
