영문 초록

A clinical study was made on the transsexuals who sought sex reassignment surgery. The subjects were given the diagnosis of true primary transsexualism according to DSM -III-R. Fifteen male patients and seven female patients visited the psychiatric out-patient unit of Dong-A University Hospital from July, 1990 through April, 1992 The results were as follow; 1) The transsexuals were characterized by greater number of siblings. The female subjects had conspicuously greater number of sisters. 2) 45.5*% of the patients showed depression at the time of visit and the nature of the depressions was generally thought to be reactive. The severity of depression at the time of visit appeared to be much less in comparison to previous periods of depression characerized by suicidal ideas or attempts among most of them. 3) No patient underwent any psychiatric treatment before visiting our unit. 4) Some patients gave us the impression that certain biological factors contributed as causative determinants, since they showed late and retarded development of the secondary sex characteristics.
