[Treating the somatic complications of anorexia]

Abstract

Anorexia can cause serious somatic complications, linked to undernutrition or associated pathological behaviours. The care pathway drawn up by a multi-discipline team is a real therapeutic challenge. Oral nutritional supplements, enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition are three possible forms of nutritional assistance.
