Abstract(s)
Introdução: A Mutilação Genital Feminina, ou MGF, coloca em risco, todos os anos,
mais de dois milhões de mulheres. Torna-se, por isso, necessário erradicar esta prática
que a ONU considera uma violação dos Direitos Humanos.
Objetivos: A presente dissertação teve por foco principal o levantamento das
possíveis complicações resultantes da MGF. Pretendeu-se reunir informação que
permita identificar os casos de MGF, abordar clinicamente as suas consequências
imediatas ou de longo prazo e contribuir para a sua prevenção e erradicação.
Metodologia: A presente monografia foi desenvolvida com base numa pesquisa
bibliográfica realizada entre os meses de fevereiro e setembro de 2021 nas plataformas
PubMed, ScienceDirect (Elsevier) e RCAAP.
Resultados e Conclusões: Foram identificadas as principais complicações
resultantes da MGF que se podem agregar nos tipos genito-urinários, obstétricos,
psicológicos e sexuais. Concluiu-se que os profissionais de saúde desempenham um
papel fundamental na prevenção da MGF, que deve assentar em cinco pilares: criação
de legislação, estabelecimento de diretrizes de orientação clínica, investigação,
educação, e intervenção comunitária.
