title: Transsexualism; new observations.
abstract: Ten cases of transsexualism have been studied. All the patients present gonadal lesions, modifications of the morphotype and small hormonologic anomalies. It is supposed that the gonadal lesions are frequently associated with this psycho-behavioural disorder. Thus transsexualism may be considered a trouble of the whole process of post gonadal sexualization.
