This work aimed to determine the frequency of inguinal hernias, describe the clinical and therapeutic aspects of inguinal hernias, describe the morbidity and mortality related to inguinal hernias and evaluate the cost of treatment. Our study was conducted from January 2010 to December 2010 in the general surgery department of the Reference Health Center of Commune I in the district of Bamako. We collected 130 cases of inguinal hernias with a sex ratio of 15.25 in favor of the male sex. The mean age was 48.02 years (standard deviation: 17.53 years). Strangulated inguinal hernias accounted for 4.9% of abdominal surgical emergencies and 14.6% of all operated inguinal hernias. More than half of the patients (82%) were operated under local anesthesia. Clinical signs were marked by painless or irreducibly painful inguinal swelling. The diagnosis was clinical in all patients. Some patients benefited from a minimum blood assessment (rhesus grouping, glycaemia, hemoglobin level and hematocrit). The Shouldice technique was performed in 68% of patients. One case of organ resection was performed, i.e. 0.8% of cases. Morbidity was 4.6% due to wall abscess;0.8% scrotal hematoma type. We have not recorded any recurrence or death.展开更多

Complete ureteral duplication is defined by a kidney that has two ureters with two orifices that communicate to the bladder through two ureteral meati. It is an anatomical variant that remains rare. Its early discovery is due to a lack of diagnostic means, hence the occurrence of long-term complications. To this end, we observe an increased importance of the morbidity linked to the late diagnosis of this duplicity. Our objective was to show the importance of the morbidity linked to the late diagnosis of this anomaly, the incidence of the infection and the complications that this pathology poses as a problem. It was a clinical case of fortuitous discovery taken care of by a general surgeon in the general surgery department of the hospital “Mother Child” Le Luxembourg Bamako Mali. We report a case of complete ureteral duplication complicated by ureterohydronephrosis on a lithiasis wedged in the uretero-vesical junction of one of the left ureters in its lower portion which required a uretero-lithotomy with bladder reimplantation of the left ureters and secondly to a uretero-lithotomy with bladder reimplantation after two months. The postoperative course was simple.展开更多

Axillary lymph node metastasis is the most important factor in the staging of breast carcinoma, and the number of axillary lymph nodes metastasizing changes the stage. Since tuberculosis also produces lymph node enlargement, this can mimic or complicate the staging of a malignant disease. Dual organ pathology can lead to interpretation difficulties and inappropriate treatment of tuberculosis as well as breast carcinoma. Additionally, fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) of such cases can be misleading if only one of the diseases is detected. We report two cases of infiltrating carcinoma of the nonspecific type of the breast in two women aged 35 and 55 where tuberculosis was found in the axillary lymph nodes in addition to metastases. As the present case led to the fortuitous discovery of tuberculosis with tumor metastasis, it reinforces the possibility of a coexisting lesion in the minds of pathologists, especially in areas endemic to tuberculosis.展开更多

The diagnosis was made in front of an intermittently painful pelvic mass. The treatment consisted of a left annexectomy;the anatomopathological examination revealed a fibro-inflammatory and hemorrhagic cyst. Postoperative results were simple with a 12-month follow-up.展开更多
