Pedophilic Disorder and Incest: a Case Report

Pedofilik bozukluk ve ensest: Olgu sunumuPedofilik bozukluk en az 6 aylık bir süre boyunca kişide ergenlik dönemine girmemiş bir çocukla ya da çocuklarla cinsel etkinlikte bulunmayla ilgili, yoğun, cinsel yönden uyarıcı düşlemlerin (fantezi), cinsel dürtülerin ya da davranışların yineleyici biçimde ortaya çıkmasıdır. Ensest ise, aile içinde ya da yakın akrabalar arasında görülen, çocuğa yönelik olduğunda çocuğun cinsel istismarı olarak da adlandırılabilecek cinsel yakınlaşma veya saldırıdır. Pedofilik bozukluk-ensest birlikteliği çoğu zaman gözden kaçan önemli bir detaydır. Bu olgu sunumunda hedef tıbbi ve toplumsal yönlerden ayrı ayrı öneme sahip bu iki tablonun birlikteliğine dikkat çekmektir.

Pedofilik bozukluk ve ensest: Olgu sunumu

Pedophilic disorder and incest: a case reportPedophilic disorder is defined as having recurrent, intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges or behaviors involving sexual activity with a prepubescent child or children over a period of at least 6 months. Incest, on the other hand, is a sexual activity or assault between family members or close relatives and when towards a child can be defined as the sexual abuse of the child. The concomitance of pedophilic disorder and incest is an important detail which is usually ignored. We would like to emphasize in this case presentation that concomitance of these two pictures are significant in targeted medical and social aspects.
