- Abstract:
- Patients with "medically unexplained" bodily symptoms form a major group in the medical care system. Diagnostic and therapeutic problems very often arise, and the concept of "somatization" promotes a better understanding of this patient group. Important historical stages in the development toward a modern diagnostic classification of somatoform disorders are outlined. A critical comment on the diagnostic approaches according to DSM-IV and ICD-10 follows.
