La violence à l'égard des femmes est un problème aux implications personnelles, sociales et économiques considérables qui se pose dans tous les pays, indépendamment du niveau économique, de la culture ou de la religion. La violence à l'égard des femmes est souvent divisée en trois catégories: physique, sexuelle et psychologique, qu'elle soit autodéterminée, interpersonnelle ou collective. Les conséquences pour les victimes sont à la fois physiques et psychologiques. Bien qu'elle ne soit pas aussi largement reconnue et facilement visualisée par les autres, la maladie chronique peut également être une conséquence de la violence, avec un impact à long terme sur la vie de la victime, agissant comme un rappel de ce qui s'est passé, même longtemps après que les abus ont cessé. Le présent document est une analyse narrative qui vise à mettre en évidence le lien entre la violence à l'égard des femmes et les maladies somatiques chroniques. Dans les études qui traitent et mettent en évidence ce lien, les méthodes de recherche utilisées soulèvent d'importantes questions quant à la représentativité des résultats obtenus et à la mesure dans laquelle ils peuvent être comparés, en particulier dans les recherches portant sur la violence entre partenaires intimes. Nous soulignons les lacunes dans les connaissances et proposons des recommandations pour les études futures et les programmes d'intervention psychothérapeutique pour les victimes de violence.
