Abstract

Hysterical neurosis, though infrequently diagnosed in the West, is still one of the commonest mental disorders in India. In this study, 38 women with an index diagnosis of hysterical neurosis were evaluated after a period of 5 years; 63% of the patients remained totally asymptomatic. The premorbid hysterical personality alone showed significant relationship with the outcome.
