The concept of conversion hysteria is applied to organs innervated by the autonomic nervous system; e.g., the bleeding of ulcerative colitis may be described as representing a specific psychic fantasy

Tunnel vision (Visual fields)

Changing pattern on multiple examinations

Peter Sifneos, John C. Nemiah (1970):

Elaborated the concept of alexithymia. Developmental arrests in the capacity and the ability to express conflict-related affect result in psychosomatic symptom formation. Concept of "alexithymia" modified later by Stoudemire, who advocated the term "somatothymia" emphasizing cultural influences on use of somatic language and somatic symptom to express affective distress

Psychiatric/Psychosocial assessment

Sigmund Freud (1900)

Psychic energy that is dammed up is discharged through physiological outlets

Somatoform disorders

Psychological factors precipitating medical symptoms

Franz Alexander (1934, 1968)

Psychosomatic symptoms occur only in organs innervated by the autonomic nervous system and have no specific psychic meaning (as does conversion hysteria) but are end results of prolonged physiological states, which are the physiological accompaniments of certain specific unconscious repressed conflicts. Presented first conceptualization of the biopsychosocial model

depressive or anxiety disorder

SSD commonly exists with what disorders?

Harold Wolff (1943):

Attempted to correlate life stress to physiological response, using objective laboratory tests. Physiological change, if prolonged, may lead to structural change. He established the basic research paradigm for the fields of psychoimmunology, psychocardiology, and psychoneuroendocrinology.

Robert Ader (2007):

Beginning in the 1970s, established the basic concepts and the research methods for the field of psychoneuroimmunology

Georg Groddeck (1910):

Clearly organic diseases, such as fever and hemorrhage, are held to have primary psychic meanings; i.e., they are interpreted as conversion symptoms that represent the expression of unconscious fantasies

Recurrence of depressive disorder in setting of cancer treatment (conditions occur independently); schizophrenia in a patient with end-stage renal disease

Co-occurring medical and psychiatric conditions

George Engel (1977):

Common Symptoms of Conversion Disorder Visceral Symptoms

Leon Eisenberg (1995

Contemporary psychiatric research demonstrates that the mind-brain responds to biological and social vectors while being jointly constructed of both. Major brain pathways are specified in the genome; detailed connections are fashioned by, and consequently reflect, socially mediated experience in the world.

Sigmund Freud (1900)

Conversion hysteria always has a primary psychic cause and meaning; i.e., it represents the symbolic substitutive expression of an unconscious conflict.

Thomas Holmes, Richard Rahe (1975)

Correlated the severity and the number of recent stressful life events with the likelihood of disease.

Anesthesia

Sensory loss does not conform to recognized pattern of distribution

Walter Cannon (1927)

Demonstrated the physiological concomitants of some emotions and the important role of the autonomic nervous system in producing those reactions. The concept is based on Pavlovian behavioral experimental designs

Karen Horney (1939), James Halliday (1948

. Zbigniew Lipowski (1970

: A total approach to psychosomatic disease is necessary. External (ecological, infectious, cultural, environmental), internal (emotional), genetic, somatic, and constitutional factors as well as past and present history are important and should be studied by investigators working in the various fields in which they are trained.
