[Invalidation of a girl after 7 years of succesfull malingering of a wound (author's transl)].

: Provocation of wounds by malingering is one of the most typical artefacts in surgery. In this paper the succesful maintaining of a wound in a girl for over 7 years is demonstrated. In this time the girl underwent 25 surgical operations and was invalidated at the age of 18 years. In patients with non-healing wounds, which cannot be explained by the rules of general pathology, doctors are well advised to think of the possibilities of malingering at an early time.
