This text proposes to discuss the hypothesis according to psychosomatic trouble constitute a traumatic trace of a past experience looking forward to subjectivation. Three patients' cases with specific somatic manifestations (obesity for Mrs. Hera, aches for Christiane, genital somatization for Philippa) permit to show how subjective history and a traumatic state materialize with somatic troubles. The psychosomatic trouble appears as the trace of an experience psychically undiscribed. Symbolisation appears possible when there is a situation to favour verbal language.
