Abstract

This paper tries to associate psychosomatic manifestations of the locomotion-system to one of the following four diagnosis: 1) conversion disorder, 2) anxiety disorder, 3) depressive mood disorder, 4) somatization disorder. For each of these diagnosis definition, clinical manifestation, diagnostic and differential-diagnostic criteria are mentioned. The diagnostic criteria can easily be associated to the new ICD-10 (V)F diagnosis.
