Abstract
In a prospective long-term follow-up of 84 patients 21 years after first hospitalisation for anorexia nervosa, we found that 50·6% had achieved a full recovery, 10·4% still met full diagnostic criteria for anorexia nervosa, and 15·6% had died from causes related to anorexia nervosa. Predictors of outcome included physical, social, and psychological variables.
