The purpose of this study was to describe the characteristics of the victims, assaults, and associated physical and psychologic trauma of sexual assault cases in Taipei. Materials and Methods: Data were retrospectively collected from the medical records of sexual assault victims who visited the emergency department of a medical center in Taipei from 1991 to 2003. The characteristics of the victims, assaults, and factors associated with general body and genital trauma were analyzed. Results: There were 114 sexual assault victims, including 107 females and seven males, aged from 3 to 49 years (mean, 17.9 years). Overall, 72.3% of victims had evidence of physical trauma. Genital/anal injuries (53.3%) occurred more often than general body trauma (41.0%). The presence of general body injuries was positively associated with physical examination within 72 hours, and negatively associated with a victim age younger than 18 years. Genital/anal lesions were significantly more common in victims without prior sexual intercourse. Conclusion: The results of physical examination in sexual assault victims were related to early examination, age, and sexual experience. © 2010 Taiwan Association of Obstetrics and Gynecology. |
