    A current view on the neglected topic of male child sexual abuse in the context of literature
    (Wiley, 2024) Sari, Seda Aybuke; Bilac, Oznur; Erten Almak, Tilbe; Butun, Celal
    Despite the growing numbers, awareness and reporting rates of male child sexual abuse (MCSA) are still well below the real values, especially in developing countries like Turkey. We examined MCSA to determine the predisposing factors, the characteristics of perpetrators and victims, and the consequences of sexual abuse in a Turkish sample. We retrospectively analysed the files and forensic reports of 51 MCSA victims aged between 6 and 18. The mean age of children was 13.6 & PLUSMN; 3.8 years, and the mean age at the time of abuse was 11.1 & PLUSMN; 3.52. The average exposure time for sexual abuse was 91 & PLUSMN; 226.8 days, and the frequency was 2.4 & PLUSMN; 2.47 times. 17.6 per cent of them had previously been sexually abused. Disclosure times until legal notification was 240.1 & PLUSMN; 552.25 days. Most (56.9 per cent) had suffered anal penetration, developed post traumatic stress disorder, and needed medical treatment. Most perpetrators (58.8 per cent) were strangers outside the family, reaching the children from the neighbourhood. In conclusion, although the number of our sample is limited, the results of our study will contribute valuably to the literature, given that there are few studies on MCSA. Further studies with large samples evaluating MCSA in multidimensional ways are needed to raise awareness and protect vulnerable children.

    Evaluation of incest cases in Sivas: Ten-year retrospective study
    (Wiley, 2024) Butun, Celal; Beyaztas, Fatma Yucel; Sari, Seda Aybuke; cicek, Ayla Uzun; Kaya, Asiye Burcu
    Although incest is generally perceived as all kinds of verbal, non-verbal, physical and visual sexual behaviour of family members and close relatives toward children, it is also a special type of sexual abuse defined as consensual sexual intercourse between close relatives or between minors who are legally prohibited from marrying. This study aimed to analyse the sociodemographic data, physical-mental examination and laboratory findings of the incest cases. Incest cases among sexual abuse and sexual assault cases sent to Sivas Cumhuriyet University Hospital Forensic Medicine outpatient clinic for examination between 2012 and 2021 were evaluated. Statistical analysis of the data was performed using the SPSS 23.0 program. P-values below 0.05 were considered significant. The records of 61 incest victims were retrospectively analysed. The cases were examined in terms of age, gender, incident, perpetrator, type of abuse, examination findings and mental status. Fifty-four (88.5%) of the incest victims were female, and the highest rate (n = 9, 14.8%) was 16 years old. Most of the victims were high school graduates (29%), 56% were in a nuclear family 57.4% of the assailants were family members, most of the case reports (73.8%) were made by the victim herself/himself, and the most common place of incident (70.3%) was the victim's home. In this study, the clinical, social and forensic outcomes of incest cases, which have many causes and tragic consequences, were investigated, and it was aimed to contribute to the solution of the problem by discussing the literature. Child abuse causes actual or potential harm to the child's health, development or dignity. Incest is a situation that is difficult to detect and legal process and is a rather ignored public health problem in developing countries such as Turkey. Sexual assault may be an ongoing condition in those who were abused during childhood.
