Resumo

Síndromes psiquiátricos ligados à cultura (SLC) e conceitos culturais de sofrimento incluem síndromes ou manifestações de doença cuja ocorrência se relaciona com contextos culturais particulares. O termo SLC é controverso porque todas as perturbações psiquiátricas ou condições médicas em geral estão por definição associadas ao contexto cultural. Constituem diferentes pontos de vista relativamente à saúde mental baseados em diferentes modelos explicativos da vivência de sofrimento mental. Estes idiomas de sofrimento têm vindo a ter um crescente interesse nos países ocidentais, quer pelo aumento do número de casos reportados, quer pela influência que a psiquiatria transcultural tem vindo a conquistar. Este artigo de revisão pretende descrever a apresentação clínica, aspetos epidemiológicos e características particulares dos SLC mais frequentemente descritos bem como refletir sobre a influência de aspetos culturais nas perturbações psiquiátricas. Em sociedades modernas multiétnicas e multiculturais a discussão sobre estes conceitos permanece, procurando integrar os SLC nos sistemas de classificação atuais ou estabelecer critérios que melhor os definam como potenciais entidades nosológicas próprias.
