We report a case of giant omphalocele unrecognized at birth followed by a review of the literature. Observation: This was a 4-year-old girl admitted to the department for umbilical swelling that had been present since birth. Clinical and paraclinical examinations made it possible to objectivize a post-omphalocele hernia with hepatic content plus ectopic accession of the left ureter, the surgical procedure consisted of reintroducing the liver associated with a cure of the hernia + ureterovesical reimplantation. Conclusion: Omphalocele is a congenital malformation, antenatal diagnosis is possible during morphological ultrasound from the 12th week.展开更多

The objective of our study was to study the profile of radiological examinations in the radiology and medical imaging department of the “KALALE” medical clinic. Methodology: This was a descriptive, prospective study that took place over a period of six (6) months in the radiology and medical imaging department of the “KALALE” medical clinic and the centers of health of communes III and IV of Bamako in Mali. Data collection was carried out on a survey form. The parameters studied were sociodemographic data, clinical data, radiological data. Results: We recorded 6030 radiology examinations of which 19% of the examination frequency cases came from the “KALALE” medical clinic and 81% of the cases were referrals from the reference health centers of communes III and IV. There were 1500 X-rays or 24.9% of cases including 54% cases of bone X-rays;5% of cases of skull and face X-rays;5% of cases of Intravenous Urography (IVU);4% of cases of Hysterosalpingography (HSG);3% of cases of Retrograde Ureterocystography (UCR) and 1% of cases of X-ray of the Abdomen without preparation (ASP). We found 4530 ultrasounds or 75.1% of cases. Conclusion: Medical imaging has become essential in the study of the human body and now constitutes an essential tool for the detection and treatment of most pathologies, from simple fractures to the most serious tumors.展开更多
