Introduction: The abuse of girls and women is an enduring and widespread tragedy that transcends socioeconomic, cultural, and other boundaries. Sexual trauma is a significant concern, as it is associated with heightened stress levels, negative health outcomes, and the potential for developing oncological conditions. A prior history of sexual abuse may increase a woman's risk of developing gynecological cancer. Methods: The study was carried out following the specialized literature review, using articles published in electronic sources recognized by international medical society such as: PubMed/MEDLINE, NEJM, NCB, Google scholar. We conducted a retrospective analysis of gynecologic oncology cases following sexual abuse. Results and discussion: Over 30% of women have experienced some form of abuse, which encompasses sexual, physical, and psychological mistreatment. Numerous research studies have found a clear link between the development of gynecologic cancer and sexual abuse. The healthcare community often falls short in screening for abuse due to various factors, including limited time, a sense of unpreparedness to provide patient counseling, and a lack of knowledge regarding the long-term effects of abuse. There is a pressing need for further research to gain a deeper understanding of these mechanisms and to create and test interventions aimed at addressing the psychosocial needs of women who have experienced sexual trauma. Identifying undisclosed histories of sexual trauma presents an opportunity to offer counseling and reduce the emotional distress that may arise during treatment, or even prevent potential relapse.
