ABSTRACT
The history of a childhood foot fetishist is discussed from a developmental, psychodynamic, and therapeutic point of view. Therapy revealed that the symptom, while initially created in response to parental pathology, later led to specific defense mechanisms which were utilized to avoid developmental tasks, resolve ambivalence, and maintain body integrity.
