From the 19th century and early writings on the subject, psychosexual factors have been reported to play a role in pyromania. After a brief review of the literature on firesetting and pyromania, two cases of arsonists are presented in which fire appears to be part of a fetish. Full sexual behaviours assessments were completed, therefore providing objective findings. Both subjects were treated for the sexual deviation associated with the acts of arson and showed significant changes in their sexual functioning. This paper deals with the issues of identification and management of such conditions.
从19世纪关于该主题的早期著作开始，就有报道称性心理因素在纵火癖中起作用。在对有关纵火和纵火癖的文献进行简要回顾之后，本文介绍了两例纵火者的案例，其中火灾似乎是恋物癖的一部分。完成了全面的性行为评估，从而提供了客观的结果。两名受试者都因与纵火行为相关的性偏差而接受治疗，并且其性功能出现了显著变化。本文探讨了此类情况的识别和处理问题。
