Resumo

Chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) is a major cause of school absenteeism. A 14-year old boy with CFS follow-ing an infectious mononucleosis with great disability and significant concerns regarding the origin of the illness is presented. Factors associated with the poor prognosis such as the illness chronicity, the family psychopathol-ogy and the longstanding belief by the patient that illness has an organic origin are discussed.
