Factitious illness by proxy is a highly pathological form of parent-child relationship.
To our knowledge no former case of polydipsia by proxy has been published.
The case of a 2-y-old boy suffering from malnutrition due to displacement of maternal anorexia and polydipsia is presented.
Child psychiatric evaluation found cognitive delay and psycho-social impairment in the child, as well as a severe mother-child relationship disturbance.
Psychological assessment showed a personality disorder with depressive and paranoid features in the mother.
The father was described as a schizoid personality.
The possible mechanisms of displacement are hypothesized.
