  • Title: [The unbearable reality of the child: Münchhausen's syndrome by proxy].
    Author: Juliot L.
    Journal: Soins Psychiatr; 2011; (273):39-41. PubMed ID: 21462497.
    Abstract:
    The hypothesis of Münchhausen's syndrome arises through a clinical situation. The patient is unable to consider the question of "being a mother". The child takes the place of a real, unbearable object, which she evacuates or which can disappear. This maternal suffering requires psychotherapeutic care.
