[Post emotional syndromes (author's transl)].
On the basis of ten clinical cases of post emotional shock, the following aspects are discussed: the causal emotion and its characteristics, its psychological repercussions and the mechanisms involvent, the clinical patterns observed, both somatic and psychic, and their interpretation. Attention is called to the consequences of such emotions from the forensic view-point and the need to ascertain and specify the nature and intensity of the emotional trauma and the actual state of anxiety. Emphasis is laid on the difficulty of making expert appraisals and fixing equitable compensations, as experts differ and their approaches to the problem and also because of the functional character of sequela and their varying degree of severity.
