Yawning is a physiological behavior, an emotional stereotypy that indicates the homeostatic process of the mechanisms regulating rhythms, such as sleeping/waking, hunger/satiety or mating/relaxation, generated by the diencephalon. As with all physiological behaviors, its deregulation reveals disorders. In daily practice, yawning as a symptom is generally neglected. That is why we propose a wide overview of yawning in diseases, its consequences and significance. Copyright (C) 2009 S. Karger AG, Basel
