title: [Treating psychic traumas: a psychiatric emergency].
abstract: Interest for the psychopathological field of trauma has experienced a revival over the last fifteen years. Early and active treatment of victims is necessary to attenuate the psychopathological consequences of trauma. However, emergency psychiatry still rarely places a high value on it. This paper presents a case which contains in itself many aspects of psychological responses to psychologically traumatizing events. Trauma induced in this case, in particular, Dissociative Disorders (including a Dissociative Fugue), a Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder, Somatoform Disorders and Phobic Disorders. This case gives us the opportunity to situate the psychiatric emergency--"psychological trauma"--and to illustrate our talk with regard to the principles of mid-term and emergency treatment of victims.
