[Transsexualism and legal proceedings].
One may not ignore the legal problem to which the transsexuals are exposed, once they have to search medical care. In Belgium, there does not exist any laws, which deal with the change of sex, although such laws would be very important for transsexual patients. On the other hand, change of the first name has been regulated by law. The actual knowledge of this problem is reviewed in this paper.
