Eating disorders affect a minority of adolescents, but represent a significant source of chronic illness in this age group. Treatment requires a multidisciplinary team approach and family involvement. The prognosis for adolescents is better than that for adult patients with eating disorders, but requires prompt diagnosis and referral to experienced providers. In this article, updates on the latest developments in the diagnosis and treatment of anorexia nervosa and bulimia are presented.
