Abstract:
A short introduction in the history and the definition of the term of consultation-liaison-psychiatry resp.-psychosomatics is given. According to a cross-section through the younger Anglo-Saxon literature the problems and the evaluation of the co-operation between pediatricians and child psychiatrists are figured. Considering the tension between these two disciplines potential conflicts and their sources are described and interpreted with the intention to minimize them. A considerable lack of research in the field of consultation-liaison psychosomatics in the German speaking area is stated.
