BACKGROUND: There is a lack of data concerning the prevalence of eating disorders in patients requesting aesthetic surgery in spite of a large body of literature on the psychopathology of these patients. This may mostly be due to insufficient diagnostic assessment instruments. Therefore, the aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of eating disorders and their comorbidities in patients undergoing aesthetic surgery. METHODS: The assessment of prevalence of the eating disorders as anorexia nervosa, bulimia nervosa and binge eating disorder as well as other mental disorders was performed with the Structured Clinical Interview for DSM-IV mental disorders (SCID), axis 1. RESULTS: 212 patients (198 females, 14 males), requesting different types of aesthetic surgery, were included in this study. Eating disorders had a current prevalence of 8.0% (17/212) and a lifetime prevalence of 11.3% (24/212). Anorexia nervosa was predominantly found in patients with breast augmentation [current: 7.4% (2/27); lifetime: 11.1% (3/27)] and rhinoplasty [6.3 (1/16); 12.6% (2/16)]. Bulimia nervosa dominated in patients with liposuction [10% (3/30); 13.3% (4/30)] and binge eating disorder in patients with abdominoplasty [current/lifetime: 10.8% (4/37)]. Levels of significance (p ≤ 0.002) were reached for prevalence of the eating disorders in above mentioned types of surgery, when compared to prevalence data of the general population (two proportion Z test for SPSS). CONCLUSION: Eating disorders are distributed according to a certain pattern in the different types of aesthetic surgery. Interestingly, the current prevalence of eating disorders (17/212) was comparable to that of body dysmorphic disorder (26/212).
