title: Judicial problems related to transsexualism in France.
abstract: The French courts have recently changed their juridical position about transsexualism. The new decisions have, among other things, asserted the necessity for preliminary judicial expertise, an ordinary medical report not being satisfactory as a legal basis. The authors present a summary of the juridical evolution, an expert analysis of transsexualism and the key concepts that the experts will have to debate.
