Background: In spite of a large amount of observations made in Psychiatric Day-Hospital of Sapienza University of Rome relating to comorbidity between sexual and gynecological disorders and hysteria, we have attempted to quantify the incidence of this phenomenon in order to assess their significance.
Methods: A retrospective study was conducted on medical records of patients hospitalized at the Day-Hospital of the Policlinico Umberto I in Rome between 1989 and 2009.
Results: It seems to be confirmed the hypothesis of a high frequency of correlating these disorders, although the results lead to a number of critical reflections on its significance and the method adopted.
Conclusions: This research needs larger and more accurate future investigations, cause the type of study was made without direct information.
