TY - JOUR PY - 1980// TI - Sexual abuse of boys JO - American journal of diseases of children (1960) A1 - Ellerstein, N. S. A1 - Canavan, J. W. SP - 255 EP - 257 VL - 134 IS - 3 N2 - In a retrospective review of 145 sexually abused children, 11% were male. The boys were more likely to be assaulted in a public place than were girls, and boys were more prone to physical injury. The relationship of the perpetrator to the child was similar for boys and girls as was the age of the children. This study emphasizes the existence of boys as victims of sexual abuse.
