    La relación entre el Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TE) y la Anorexia Nerviosa (AN) ha suscitado un creciente interés dadas las altas tasas de comorbilidad y la necesidad de adaptar los tratamientos existentes a esta población, ya que presentan peores resultados en los tratamientos estándar para el trastorno de conducta alimentaria. En este artículo se realiza una revisión descriptiva de diferentes aspectos relacionados con los TEA y la AN tratando de ofrecer una perspectiva sobre el tema que pueda ser de utilidad para la práctica clínica. En él se abordan aspectos epidemiológicos y perfiles neuropsicológicos, se profundiza en las particularidades del diagnóstico en estos casos y se exponen las propuestas de tratamiento.

    The relationship between Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Anorexia Nervosa (AN) has raised a growing interest given the high comorbidity rates and the need to adapt existing treatment to this population, since they present worse results in standard treatments for eating disorders. In this article, a descriptive review of different aspects related to ASD and AN is carried out, trying to offer a perspective on the topic that may be useful for clinical practice. It covers epidemiological aspects and neuropsychological profiles, deepens the particularities of the diagnosis in these cases and presents treatment proposal.
