Atypical anorexia nervosa (AAN) is an eating disorder in which individuals meet all the qualifications for anorexia nervosa (AN), including a body image disturbance and a history of restrictive eating and weight loss, except that they are not currently underweight (no higher than 85% of a normal bodyweight). Atypical anorexia qualifies as a mental health disorder in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5), under the category Other Specified Feeding and Eating Disorders (OSFED). The characteristics of people with atypical anorexia generally do not differ significantly from anorexia nervosa patients except for their current weight. Patients with atypical anorexia were diagnosed with the DSM-IV qualification "eating disorder not otherwise specified" (EDNOS) until the DSM-5 was released in 2013. The term atypical anorexia was historically used to describe the restrictive eating habits of some people with autism. The DSM-5 superseded this term with the avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder (ARFID) diagnosis. However, some researchers still critique usage of atypical anorexia for its implication that patients do not fit a standard image of disordered eating. Their concern lies with the term possibly enforcing a limited understanding and categorization of eating disorders. Other diagnostic manuals, such as the ICD-11 and earlier editions, still group AAN under a label of unspecified disorders rather than its own diagnosis. Researchers point to the lack of official consensus as an issue in treating individuals with AAN.
