title: [Existential analytic psychotherapy of conversion neurosis in migrant workers].
abstract: After a brief introduction into some existential-analytic points of view of the body and of conversion syndrome the actual socio-cultural situation of the migrant workers is explained with many details. For the understanding of the meaning of the conversion symptoms it is necessary to search for the existential concept of the patient which is actually in danger. The therapeutic procedure following this concept is demonstrated on the base of four clinical cases.
