07-SEPTEMBER-2008 03:17:44 - Somatoform disorder Redirected from Somatoform Somatoform disorder Classification and external resources ICD-10 F45. ICD-9 300.8 DiseasesDB 1645 eMedicine med/3527 MeSH D013001 Somatoform disorder also known as Briquet's syndrome is characterized by physical symptoms that mimic disease or injury for which there is no identifiable physical cause1 or physical symptoms such as pain, nausea, depression, and dizziness. Somatoform disorders are physical symptoms which present as part of a general medical condition. However, no general medical condition, other mental disorder, or substance is adequately diagnosed. The complaints are serious enough to cause significant emotional distress and impairment of social and/or occupational functioning. An inadequate diagnosis might be the result of inconclusive or faulty test results or in some cases intentional malpractice in which a caregiver deliberately mishandles a patient's health care to derive some benefits. A diagnosis of a somatoform disorder implies that psychological factors are a large contributor to the symptoms' onset, severity and duration. It is important to note that somatoform disorders are not the result of conscious malingering or factitious disorders. Contents 1 Recognized somatoform disorders 2 Proposed somatoform disorders 3 See also 4 References 5 External links Recognized somatoform disorders The somatoform disorders recognized by the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders of the American Psychiatric Association are: Conversion disorder Somatization disorder Hypochondriasis Body dysmorphic disorder Pain disorder Undifferentiated somatoform disorder - only one unexplained symptom is required for at least 6 months. Included among these disorders are false pregnancy, psychogenic urinary retention, and mass psychogenic illness so-called mass hysteria Somatoform disorder NOS Proposed somatoform disorders Additional proposed somatoform disorders are: Abridged somatization disorder2 - at least 4 unexplained somatic complaints in men and 6 in women Multisomatoform disorder3 - at least 3 unexplained somatic complaints from the PRIME-MD scale for at least 2 years of active symptoms These disorders have been proposed because the recognized somatoform disorders are either too restrictive or too broad. In a study of 119 primary care patients, the following prevalences were found4: Somatization disorder - 1% Abridged somatization disorder - 6% Multisomatoform disorder - 24% Undifferentiated somatoform disorder - 79% See also Medically unexplained physical symptoms Munchausen syndrome by proxy References ^ Somatoform Disorders 1 ^ Escobar JI, Rubio-Stipec M, Canino G, Karno M 1989.
