Abstract

Objectives: To relate relevant historical references on the evolution of taxonomy and the concept of somatic symptom disorderand contribute to the updating of health professionals in formulating diagnoses for this new category. Methodology: All editions of the psychiatric classifications published by the American Psychiatric Association and the World Health Organization were reviewed. In addition, the main textbooks on clinical psychiatry, texts on the history and evolution of this diagnosis and scientific articles written by the teams responsible for reviewing current classifications were considered. Development: An overview of the significant historical milestones regarding the evolution ofthe concept and the mainchanges in the classifications of this disorder over the years, up to the current editions, is presented. It ends with a description of the clinical characteristics, as defined in current manuals, equipping health professionals to assess and approach thiscondition. Conclusion: In the last editions of the ICD and the DSM, there was a diagnostic reconceptualization of the group of somatoform disorders, resulting in the establishment of the category of somatic symptoms disorder. It is essential that these innovations are disseminated and included in the syllabus of professional education, qualifications and training, in order to increase skills in clinical practice and provide a more accurate and uniform communication of information between health professionals.
