Munchausen syndrome by proxy.

Munchausen syndrome by proxy is the most difficult form of child abuse. It carries substantial morbidity and mortality. The diagnosis relies on appropriate suspicion and careful investigation. The psychological illness/need of the perpetrator is the main clinical feature. Early recognition and appropriate intervention prevent further abuse and criminal actions.
