The rare syndrome describes people who wander from hospital to hospital
feigning severe diseases that require dramatic emergency care. The "patient" is
always a pathological liar and may even self-mutilate to present symptoms. Once
admitted, these people will often get into violent arguments with staff, pushing for
painful diagnostic procedures and needless operations. William McLllhoy, a
renowned Munchausen's patient, cost the British health system over $4 million
over 50 years with 400 operations at 100 hospitals using 22 aliases.
