Ten Year Chronic Conversion Disorder Associated with Abnormal Posture in Elbow: A Case Report

Conversion disorder is presented by deficits in voluntary motor (such as paralysis) or sensory functions (blindness) that are not explained by known physical disorder and are not related to known anatomical sections. Symptoms or deficits are usually of short duration and most patients remit spontaneously. Recurrence is also common. This paper reports a 17-year-old girl with psycho-flexed elbow as a conversion reaction from ten Years earlier. This was a unique case in terms of clinical features and duration of the illness.
