description Factitious disorder imposed on another, also known as Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy (MSBP), is a serious form of child abuse that is difficult to diagnose. In general, signs and symptoms are fabricated or produced by the mother or the caregiver. Delay in diagnosis may cause serious morbidity and mortality. Here, we present the case of an 18-month-old boy who was admitted to the Paediatric Infection Clinic with a diagnosis of acute gastroenteritis. When on intravenous fluid therapy, he developed high fever and subsequently, polymicrobial growth was determined in his blood. He was later diagnosed with MSBP. Despite being a rare condition, MSBP is a disorder that is often overlooked and may have fatal outcomes. Early diagnosis is very important in this disorder, which is considerably difficult to diagnose. In suspected cases, interdisciplinary team work is necessary to prevent adverse consequences.
