          Abstract

          La pathomimie cutanée se définit comme une maladie factice, provoquée dans un etat de conscience claire par le patient lui-même, au niveau du revêtement cutanéo-muqueux et/ou des phanères. Rare chez l'enfant, il s'agit d'une manifestation psychopathologique potentiellement grave et souvent difficile à prendre en charge. Nous rapportons le cas d'une fillette de 10 ans présentant une pathomimie sous forme de lésions excoriées multiples du visage.

          [Precocious and polymorphic factitious disorder].

          Pathomimia is a mental disease more frequently diagnosed in women, characterised by a wide range of somatic or psychiatric symptoms, and a chronic course with severe complications. A 22-year-old woman was suffering from severe factitious disorders with thermopathomimia, dermopathomimia, self-injuries with induced abscess, Lasthenie de Ferjol syndrome, and psychiatric factitious disorder. A very precocious age at onset and a previous history of 37 surgical operations were found. This case history is particularly relevant in showing the clinical multiplicity of factitious disorders.
