[Ingestion of metals and factitious disorders. Impulse control disorder presenting on a background of situational conflicts].
    Psychiatrische Praxis, 2000, Volume: 27, Issue:2

    We describe the case of a 27-year-old woman who in addition to the symptoms of factitious disorder showed deliberate ingestion of foreign objects. The relationship between secret and open self-destructive behavior is discussed. Analysis of situational factors highlights the importance of interactional background for the manifestation of impulsive self-harm. Parallels are pointed out to foreign body ingestion in institutionalized persons. Therapeutic issues are discussed.
