Abstract:
:Transsexualism is a challenging entity posing diagnostical, etiological, ethical and moral questions with no general consensus of opinion and a controversial management policy. The present article tries to deal with these questions by drawing a parallel with another psychiatric syndrome in which there is also a disturbance in body image, namely anorexia nervosa. The parallel is at the level of clinical presentation, psychodynamic etiology and their common socioepidemic dimension.
