BACKGROUND: Dermatitis artefacta (DA) consists of self-inflicted skin lesions that the patient denies having produced.
OBJECTIVES: To conduct a single-center retrospective clinical review of children and adolescents diagnosed with DA.
METHODS: From 1976 to 2006, data were collected on children diagnosed with DA who were seen in the Department of Dermatology in our hospital. Clinical and epidemiologic features are described. Forty-four children (mean age 12.9 yrs) were selected, representing 21.9% of the total patients with DA recorded (n = 201) during this period.
RESULTS: The most frequent clinical forms were excoriations (16 [36.4%]) and ulcers (10 [22.7%]), followed by blisters (7 [15.9%]), burns (3 [6.8%]), contact dermatitis (3 [6.8%]), hematomas (2 [4.5%]), panniculitis (1 [2.3%]), cheilitis (1 [2.3%]), and hyperpigmentation (1 [2.3%]). Sixteen were located exclusively on the face and neck, whereas 28 also had other locations (upper limbs, n = 10; lower limbs, n = 9; thorax, n = 5; abdomen, n = 4). Cutaneous lesions were treated with occlusive bandages using zinc paste or a plaster splint when necessary.
CONCLUSION: To our knowledge, this is the largest reported series of DA in childhood. This complicated psychodermatologic condition requires correct diagnosis, appropriate management, and psychiatric assessment.
