title: [Therapeutic possibilities regarding somatoform disorders in soldiers].
abstract: The authors used the ICD-10 classification and presented the most common psychopathological syndromes from the category "neurotic disorders connected to stress and somatoform disorders" present amongst recruited soldiers. Recruitment to the army is a "situation which is endangering to the mental health" (from the Act on mental health protection), however socio-political changes that took place in our country are an additional factor which can lead to such disorders. The limitations in treatment of these disorders, which are due to army specifications, cause for the majority of those soldiers affected to be unable to carry out their duty. As a consequence of this, civil units carry out the therapeutic processes. Particular attention, amongst the other disorders described, is attributed to the so-called organ neuroses. The authors stress upon the need for psychoprophylactic actions which would reduce the health consequences of being recruited into the army.
