[Child abuse and neglect: medical aspects].
Child abuse and neglect is a global problem that effects children of all ages and social classes. The article discusses some of the medical aspects of child abuse. As the presence of "proof" in the form of an obvious physical injury is often lacking, it is of the utmost importance that professional people are sensitive to the signs and symptoms (signals) to which abuse and neglect may be one of many possible diagnoses. Teamwork between the relevant professional groups is essential to solve the problem.
