Abstract

Although the differential diagnosis of hemoptysis is extensive, consideration of a factitious cause is rarely contemplated. Factitious hemoptysis is uncommon in children. We report a dramatic case of factitious hemoptysis in a 12-year-old girl. The features of Munchausen's syndrome are also reviewed.

Özet

Hemoptizinin ayırıcı tanısı çok geniş olmasına rağmen, suni bir neden olabileceği çok nadiren düşünülür. Çocuklarda suni hemoptizi yaygın değildir. Bu yayında, olgunun kendisi tarafından suni olarak yapılan hemoptizili 12 yaşındaki kız hasta sunuldu. Munchausen sendromunun bulguları yeniden gözden geçirildi.
