Surgeon jailed after amputation of own legs

Extreme case of dysphoria. I wish he'd sought help.
A possible explanation. I've often asked myself what causes body dysmorphia. Perhaps some trauma in early childhood?
Although others may strongly disagree I think it is possible that there is something in common in body dysmorphia and gender dysphoria, since in both these people wish that completely healthy parts of the body get amputated.
