چکیده
Loke Kwok Hien, MBBS Mal, MPM Mal Lecturer Department of Psychological Medicine Faculty of Medicine, University of Malaya Kuala Lumpur, 22-11, Malaysia No accurate statistical data on the incidence of sexual deviation is available mainly because few patients seek treatment voluntarily. When a case is reported in the press, it attracts the attention of the public. Offenders are seldom apprehended but their acts can have far-reaching consequences on both themselves as well as on their victims, Most cases seen in the hospitals are referred by the law courts for either psychiatric opinion or treatment or both; few voluntary cases surface because of the social stigma involved.
