Abstract

The World Health Organization defines female genital mutilation/cutting as any medically unnecessary procedure involving partial or total removal of the external female genitalia or other injury to the female genital organs. It is a violation of human rights and associated with serious complications and lifelong impact on health. This review article summarizes for the pediatric and adolescent care provider the incidence worldwide, the impact of cultural practices, appropriate screening and diagnosis, interventions, and treatment, along with legal and ethical issues.

摘要

世界卫生组织将女性生殖器切割定义为任何涉及部分或全部切除女性外生殖器或对女性生殖器官造成其他伤害的医学上不必要的手术。这是对人权的侵犯，会引发严重并发症并对健康产生终身影响。这篇综述文章为儿科和青少年护理人员总结了全球范围内的发病率、文化习俗的影响、适当的筛查与诊断、干预措施及治疗方法，以及法律和伦理问题。
