Abstract
Incest is defined as any form of sexual contact between immediate relatives without regarding the ages, and consent of the participants. In studies performed recently, the investigators take all caregivers liable to look after the sufferers into consideration as perpetrators, notwithstanding their biologic ties with the victims. Historically incest relations mostly between father and daughter have been addressed, disregarding incest between siblings. Although numerous case reports of incest have been presented, this case differs from others in that the victim had been sexually molested by her brother throughout a year, and she was hospitalized with a diagnosis strongly suggesting an acute organic pathology.
