    Author: Walter G.
    Journal: Br J Psychiatry; 1991 Aug; 159():283-4. PubMed ID: 1773249.
    Abstract:
    The case of a middle-aged man who inserted a knitting needle into his urethra is described. This behaviour was associated with a monosymptomatic hypochondriacal delusion. The causes of such behaviour are discussed, together with the nosological status of monosymptomatic hypochondriacal psychosis.
