동성 강간 피해자에서 발생한 외상후 자극 장애 1례 = A Case of Post-traumatic Stress Disorder in A Victim of Homosexual Rape

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

While the homosexual rape is not rare in Korea, but there has not been but one report about that. Authors reported a 21-year-old man had post-traumatic stress disorder after being raped by a roommate.
When he was 18 years old, he was raped by a roommate in high school dormitory. He had symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder after the accident. As time went by, he partially recovered. When he was recruited by the army, he had to sleep with men, which reminded him of the previous rape experience. He had acute psychotic symptoms and panic attacks. After environmental manipulation, supprotive pschyotherapy and pharmacotherapy, he improved. As we reviewed studies about female rape victims, we noticed that the psychological responses of a male homosexual rape victim were similar to that of female rape victims and that when the victim was forced to confront the situation which remind of the accident, he relapsed (or exacerbated).
