Abstract:
Factitious Disorder is a chronic and difficult-to-diagnose artificial illness characterized by the in-dividual's recurrent simulation of symptoms,deliberate self-harm to produce signs or symptoms,and a high likeli-hood of misdiagnosis and mistreatment in clinical settings.This article introduces a case of a 10-year-old girl with factitious disorder who was misdiagnosed as Henoch-Schonlein purpura in 4 medical institutions,which was the first simulated case of Henoch-Schonlein purpura in China.Based on the literature analysis of factitious disorder,the au-thor combed and analyzed the literature in order to improve clinicians'awareness of the disease and reduce misdiag-nosis and mistreatment.
