[Diagnosis of an organic disease in an accentuated personality].
In a female patient with Dunbar-syndrome the cause of the complaints is not recognized during 18 years. Therefore, the symptomatology of the stenosis of the truncus coeliacus is briefly outlined. The patient reacts more and more neurotic on the misunderstanding of organically conditioned complaints, so that at last a consilium of experienced specialists makes the diagnosis "functional intestinal disturbances, hypchondriac depressive syndrome in accentuated personality". Therefore functional disturbances are to be diagnosed only then (also in the psychopathologic behaviour of the patients!), when an organic disease is excluded. The difficulty to justify such a demand is great.
