Authors : Azzouz D . Benyagoub M . Belhadj R .
Abstract
Research on sexual violence in forensic medicine is complex due to its taboo nature and the difficulty in reporting, particularly when minors are the victims. The objective of this work is to clarify the importance of a forensic emergencies unit where victims of sexual assaults are treated. Additionally, it aims to study the epidemiological and medico-legal aspects of sexual assaults in minors. Sexual assaults encompass a wide range of acts with varying natures and intensities. While certain forms of sexual abuse, particularly those involving minors, may not always result in immediate physical harm, the emotional and psychological impact is significant. Therefore, victims should be promptly referred to specialized units such as the forensic emergencies unit
