Abstract
Subcutaneous cervicofacial emphysema is an entity with the presence of air within the fascial planes of the head and neck, which results from various causes. A case of severe subcutaneous cervicofacial emphysema associated with Munchausen's syndrome is presented. Detailed diagnostic investigations to find out the organic cause of the condition were failed. Episodes of facial swelling were prevented by psychiatric support. Munchausen's syndrome should be kept in mind among the etiological factors of subcutaneous cervicofacial emphysema cases, in whom no organic causes can be found out.
