Sexual trauma associated with fisting and recreational drugs

Sex Transm Infect. 2004 Dec;80(6):469-70. doi: 10.1136/sti.2004.011171.

Abstract

There is a rising trend in high risk sexual behaviour among men who have sex with men (MSM), with concomitant use of recreational drugs. Activities include fisting and unprotected anal intercourse with a partner who is HIV serodiscordant or of unknown status. We describe three cases of HIV positive MSM who have recently attended our unit as a result of complications secondary to fisting.
