[Psychosomatic medicine and gastroenterology].
The possible relationship between psychosomatic medicine and gastroenterology is described and more specifically in the question of peptic ulcer which gave rise to the psychosomatic theory, prevalent in 1950-85. The infectious theory (H. pylori), that arose within the last decade, was discussed and the question was posed in the direction that one theory was not exclusive of the other but in fact were probably complementary of each other.
