Resumen

Estudios epidemiológicos indican que el Trastorno del Espectro Autista (TEA) es diagnosticado con mayor frecuencia en varones que en féminas. Investigadores han propuesto que es posible que esto se deba a: subestimación y fallos en la detección del autismo en las féminas, camuflaje de síntomas en las féminas, métodos de evaluación utilizados y/o a sesgos por parte de los profesionales al diagnosticar, entre otros. Este trabajo se propone analizar aspectos relacionados a la presentación del autismo en féminas, explorar condiciones comórbidas en esta población, y examinar los retos asociados a los procedimientos diagnósticos.
