ABSTRACT
The article presents the clinical profile of 72 patients with somatization seen by a psychiatric team at the request of somaticians in a emergency service in St Luc hospital (Brussels-Belgium). These include 37.5% of mood disorders, 11% of psychotic disorders and 20% of serious anxiety disorders. The psychiatric antecedents of these patients are very poor. Only the combined intervention of the somatician and the psychiatrist can improve the compliance and the level of psychiatric care which is very low.
