title: [Invisible fathers: child development and family dynamics after heterologous insemination].
abstract: This study presents the long term outcome of the psychotherapy of a girl over seven years, which was born after donor insemination (DI) and aged eight became ill with a compulsive disorder. Aspects of child development, communication within the family and family dynamics related to this specific constellation are pointed out. This case-study presents one of the very few supplements to statistic data elaborated about assitsed-reproduction-families. Implications for individual therapy and therapeutic management of the family are discussed according to development of bonding and identity of the DI-child, father's role, dynamics of the couple and the incognito of the "invisible father".
