Symptoms of masked depression are often localised in the otorhinolaryngeal field. Headache, facial pain, dysphagia, burning sensations in the tongue, tinnitus, vertigo and voice and respiratory disorders were frequent complaints of 48 patients at our out-patient clinic between 1980 and 1985. After careful exclusion of organic disease, they proved to be due to endogenous depressive disorder. An increase in the number of such cases has been noted. One patient is described as an example of the problems of diagnosis.
隐匿性抑郁症的症状通常局限于耳鼻喉领域。1980年至1985年间，在我们门诊的48例患者中，头痛、面部疼痛、吞咽困难、舌部烧灼感、耳鸣、眩晕以及声音和呼吸障碍是常见的主诉。在仔细排除器质性疾病后，发现这些症状是由内源性抑郁症引起的。已注意到此类病例数量有所增加。现描述一例患者以说明诊断方面的问题。
