Abstract

Primary care physicians should be alert to potential or actual child abusers who use somatic complaints as their ticket of admission to the health care delivery system. Five patients who presented in this manner will be discussed along with salient features of child abuse. Suggestions for approaching those abusers who use functional complaints as their ticket of admission will be outlined.
