description The COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic has added additional difficulties to the differential diagnostic evaluation of the status of patients with disorders of affective and neurotic registers. In such conditions, the works describing and analyzing specific clinical cases are of considerable interest. The paper describes three clinical cases of somatization mental disorders manifesting themselves during the COVID-19 pandemic, with an account of their history, somatic and mental status, psychopathological classification of the condition, and a rationale for the therapy regimen. Itching, dysuria, and hyperventilation without a somatic basis come to the fore in the clinical picture. These somatic symptoms developing in the pattern of mental disorders of the affective and neurotic registers substantially make the diagnosis, specialized care provision, and medical routing of patients difficult. An integrated psychosomatic approach to clinically evaluating psychopathological disorders that are partially realized in dermatological, urological, and pulmonological spheres, contributes to their adequate diagnosis and effective therapy.
