Pathways to orthorexia nervosa: a case series discussion.
CONCLUSION: Past literature focused on differential diagnosis between ON and other psychiatric disorders. This is the first description of clinical cases in a real-life setting that started with different psychiatric disorders and later developed symptoms suggestive of ON. These cases have generated a new research question on the possibility that different psychiatric disorders may associate with a later onset of ON.
LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, descriptive study.
