Registered surgeons - men and women - were invited to take part completely anonymously and 1,434 responded. Half were women:

    63% of women had been the target of sexual harassment from colleagues
    30% of women had been sexually assaulted by a colleague
    11% of women reported forced physical contact related to career opportunities
    At least 11 incidents of rape were reported
    90% of women, and 81% of men, had witnessed some form of sexual misconduct

This is all self reported, but the numbers are still incredibly high.
