Dysmorphophobia: body dysmorphic disorder or delusional disorder, somatic subtype?
Compr Psychiatry.
1989 Nov-Dec.
Abstract
The DSM-III-R proposes to divide dysmorphophobia into two separate disorders: delusional disorder, somatic subtype and dysmorphic disorder. We believe that this distinction of delusional and nondelusional is impossible from a phenomenological point of view, and that dysmorphophobic beliefs are better classified as overvalued ideas. The concept of dysmorphophobia and its relationship to monosymptomatic hypochondriacal psychoses and DSM-III-R categories is reviewed. A case report is described to support these arguments.
