  • Abstract
    Munchausen syndrome by proxy (MSBP) bottom-list diagnosed in medical settings, imposes a large burden and is a matter of concern to public health. It has the ill reputation of being unamenable to treatment. Authors describe a case from Iran suffering from both MSBP and Munchausen syndrome (MS) at the same time. A form of nonpharmacologic intervention specifically tailored for MS was found promising and there was no relapse in a two year follow up.
