Resumen

CAMPO-ARIAS, Adalberto; HERAZO, Edwin  y  CEBALLOS-OSPINO, Guillermo A.. Review of cases, case series and prevalence studies of zoophilia in the general population. rev.colomb.psiquiatr. [online]. 2021, vol.50, n.1, pp.34-38.  Epub 17-Mayo-2021. ISSN 0034-7450.  https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rcp.2019.03.003.

Background:

Information about the frequency of zoophilic behaviour in the general population is scarce.

Objective:

To review cases, case series and prevalence studies of zoophilia in adults in the general population.

Methods:

A review of publications was carried out in MEDLINE via PubMed, Scopus and the Biblioteca Virtual en Salud [Virtual Health Library] ranging from January 2000 to December 2017.

Results:

Thirteen papers were reviewed (ten case reports, two case series and one cross-sectional study). Twelve patients were described, the case series totalled 1,556 people and the cross-sectional study included 1,015 participants and reported a prevalence of zoophilic behaviour of 2%.

Conclusions:

Information on the prevalence of zoophilic behaviour in the general population is limited. The Internet will probably be a valuable tool for further investigating these behaviours in coming years.
