In a follow-up study patients with "restless legs" investigated in 1986 were reexamined three years later. In 1989 the patients showed similar psychopathological symptoms, i.e. a depressive-anxious-hypochondric syndrome. The connection between restless legs syndrome and psychic disorders, and in particular the possibility of a common pathogenesis, are discussed.
