The material and case reports presented illustrate the point previously observed that while psychogenic organic symptoms may be symbolizations
of emotional conflicts they need not necessarily be so 'but only incidental results of appropriate and readily comprehensible emotional expressions'. An example is development of a sore throat during sleep from oral breathing while the patient is dreaming of being fed. The oral breathing is a symbolization, the sore throat incidental.
