RESUMO

This study deals with the description of a home care dysphagic patient case study. The aim was to demonstrate the relevance of the psychic aspects in the swallowing disorders treatment, searching to understand why the dysphagic symptoms became recurrent since in the organic-functionary point of view, the patient had no more disorders. This is a descriptive research done through clinic-qualitative method, by a unique, exemplary or emblematic clinical case study of an 82 years old patient (named as Dona Laura) with stroke that caused dysphagia, paresthesia and paresis of the left facial side, beyond language expression disorder and dysarthria. The data had been collected between June 2004 and December 2005, and the clinical material consisted of the therapies memories analysis, made by weekly registers, written in a narrative form. The stroke brought fragility to the patient subjectivity and made it difficult to her support the familiar relations, as well as her routines. The opening of the therapist listening to this suffering situation allowed the patient to be dislocated from the organic rehabilitation into the direction of a ressubjectivation, meaning a construction of a new subjective profile, more satisfactory in the current relationary conditions of patients life. The research demonstrated the relevance of considering the body in the dysphagia treatment, not only on its organic face, but also on its symbolical and affective spheres
