Abstract
Over 14 years a patient was admitted at least 91 times to at least 25 general and four psychiatric hospitals and treated for a wide range of conditions that she did not have. She appears to have recovered. The medical and psychiatric care she received probably contributed to the onset of this disorder in a person already vulnerable, and to its maintenance.
