The case of a young female patient is described who presented symptoms of transsexualism; surgical intervention was considered. Admitted to the hospital after having become depressed and suicidal, a thorough examination and observation revealed the presence of multiple personality disorder (MPD). Even though transsexualism and MPD represent two different conditions, there are many similarities between them. The possibility of MPD should be considered in every case of transsexualism.
描述了一名年轻女性患者的病例,她表现出易性癖症状;考虑进行手术干预。在出现抑郁和自杀倾向后入院,全面检查和观察发现存在多重人格障碍(MPD)。尽管易性癖和多重人格障碍是两种不同的病症,但它们之间有许多相似之处。在每一例易性癖病例中都应考虑到多重人格障碍的可能性。
