Hypnosis in the Elucidation of Hysterical Aphonia: A Case Report

Pages 178-182 | Received 23 Mar 1986, Accepted 30 Mar 1987, Published online: 21 Sep 2011
 

Abstract

Hypnotic procedures, including age-regression, helped to clarify the diagnosis in the case of a 44-year-old female patient with a recent voice loss. Her problem appeared to be related to marital difficulties and the prospect of acting as a witness at a court hearing. She soon recovered her voice. Although the case appeared to be one of hysterical aphonia, malingering could not be entirely excluded.
