title: [Factors and situations related to the onset of psychosomatic disorders in northern African patients in France].
abstract: A clinical study of 60 people in two groups (patients and controls), using clinical interviews and a questionnaire, brought to light three series of obvious factors, directly related to the onset of psychosomatic disorders: 1) the disruption generated by transplantation; 2) the cultural make-up of personality; 3) a structural predisposition. Finally, we point out that this study is the partial transcription of a research topic treated in detail elsewhere.
