Migration and Psychosomatic Disadaptation

C. ALBERTO SEGUIN M.D.1

1 Federico Villarreal 663, San Isidro Lima, Peru

The man of Peru's sierra and the inhabitant of the coast, besides being physiologically different, live in two worlds far apart. This psychosomatic difference results, when the mechanisms of adjustment fail, in the sindrome psicosomatico de desadaptacion. When it is not correctly diagnosed the patient is bound to be mishandled and aggravated.

Etiology, symptomatology, clinical pictures, pathogenesis, evolution, diagnosis, prognosis, and therapy of the sindrome psicosomatico de desadaptacion are studied.
