An investigation on the psychopathology of pica and hypochromic anemia.

The psychopathology of pica and its relationship with hypochromic anemia has been investigated on 22 hypochromic anemic patients with pica and compared with 9 hypochromic anemic patients without pica. The results obtained from the psychiatric investigations have led to the following conclusions: The neurotic personality structure and the preoedipal fixation with an emphasis of orality, found in these cases, act as a predisposing factor for the manifestation of pica. The stress caused by the actual state of hunger due to sociocultural and socioeconomical deprivations, as well as by the personal psychological conflict situations and by the organic stress of the hypochromic anemia, lead to an ego regression in the neurotic personality structure, resulting in pica, a symptom of oral perversion.
