Hysterical flatulence
Flatulence, at least sharply expressed, is a relatively infrequent manifestation of hysteria: this is especially true of those recent cases, where flatulence is the only manifestation of neurosis. Like other symptoms of the last day, flatulence has for the most part a rather innocent influence on the general condition of the patient. But there are cases where hysterical tympanism takes on the most serious, even fatal meaning for the patient.
