A group of 47 patients suffering from chronic recurrent duodenal ulcers was subdivided into two groups according to whether the first manifestation of the disorder occurred early or late in the life of each individual. A comparison of the two groups revealed that the patients in group I (early manifestation) had a larger number of constitutional handicaps along with a higher incidence of dispositional prior experience with regard to object loss and that they assumed social responsibility at an early age. Group II (late manifestation) was characterized by a larger number of depressive psychoses, a higher incidence of alcohol abuse, and by attempts at suicide. Apart from this, the patients in group II often complained of muscular pain syndromes. Patients in group I frequently exhibited the characteristics of the ulcer type described by Alexander as well as chronic anger. Patients in group II most often had the personality structure of so-called psychosomatic patients or suffered from depressive disorders affecting their personalities and from chronic anxiety. The two characteristics which were most typical for recidivation were: 1. Actualization of experienced bereavement and 2. unspecific activation as a result of the will to assert themselves in stress situations. In 41% of the cases there was evidence of somatic factors as e.g. starvation, abuse of alcohol or abuse of analgetics. Long-term prophylaxis has been effected by psychopharmacological agents as well as by psychotherapeutic techniques.
