  • Title: Associated psychopathology in conversion patients without organic disease.
    Author: Lecompte D, Clara A.
    Journal: Acta Psychiatr Belg; 1987; 87():654-61. PubMed ID: 3452984.
    Abstract:
    The authors examine the associated psychiatric diagnoses of 100 consecutive patients with conversion symptoms without organic disease. More than 80% of the subjects present a coexisting psychiatric disorder. The most frequent are affective disorder, personality disorder, other "neurotic" disorder and substance abuse. The authors conclude that conversion should be considered as a nonspecific symptom.
