Abstract
Abstract Objective: to identify Brazilian and international scientific evidence about women in situation of sexual violence service by a multidisciplinary health team. Method: an integrative literature review carried out in four databases and in a digital library, with the following inclusion criteria: type of study, language and temporal cut. The final sample consisted of 34 studies. Results: nine categories emerged: service network; teamwork; health professional in the service network; qualification and training; comprehensiveness; protocols; services; access to services and support from managers. They were organized into potentialities, demands and weaknesses, constituting elements necessary for assistance effectiveness by the multidisciplinary team to women in situation of sexual violence. Conclusion an Implications for practice: despite the potential of providing women care in situations of sexual violence, weaknesses stand out as an incipient and inexistent articulation of the intersectoral care network, generating demands for the networks’ construction, articulation and sustainability. In addition, professional qualification and support of managers in the performance of public policies make possible care comprehensiveness, updates and service evidence.

Summary
The World Health Organization (WHO) advocates interdisciplinary and multisectoral care in situations of sexual violence It covers public and private services such as health, education, criminal justice, social services, and civil society.[1] Women in situations of sexual violence tend to seek out health services, since they are, for the most part, the first contact and point of entry for care. In this sense, the work of health professionals is fundamental to form links and articulate the service with the other intersectoral services.[1]. The problem of sexual violence, in addition to the negative consequences of emotional and psychic, has impacts on the sexual and reproductive health of women, in addition to exposure to risks such as physical injuries, pregnancy and Sexually Transmitted Infections (STIs).[2,3]
