Abstract:
Sexual violence against minors is diverse and is subject to different criminal qualifications. Health professionals, and clinicians in general, may get to know certain perpetrators in order to assess, guide and/or treat them. This can be complicated if these professionals are not aware of the reality of the situations mentioned. Good knowledge, caution and critical distance must accompany their assessments and clinical acts.
