This study, made by the suggestion of the Dutch Gezondheidsraad, which is the highest counseling body for the Ministry of Health, and realized by appointment of the Stichting Nederlands Gender Centrum, is a follow-up study of patients with transsexual symptoms who underwent surgery and those who did not undergo surgery in The Netherlands, belongs to the best follow-up studies by conception, sample selection, methodology, realization and presentation of results. We do not refer to it because the publication has appeared only as an institution script in the Dutch language and is hardly available. The main results of the research were later published in the Archives of Sexual Behavior (Kuiper & Cohen-Kettenis, 1988). Corresponding to chronological order, they are referred to later on.
