Clinical and Therapeutic Aspects of Genital Prolapse at Hôpital du Mali about 100 Cases

To study the epidemio-clinical aspects, and the therapeutic attitudes of genital prolapse (GP) in the gynecology department of Hôpital du Mali (HDM). This is a descriptive retro-prospective study over five (5) years from January 2015 to December 2019, conducted in the gynecology department of HDM. We had collected 100 cases of GP out of 989 surgeries, with a frequency of 9.89%. The age group of 60 years and over accounted for 33% of our patients, with a mean age of 50 years. Multiparous were the most affected (89%). The notion of obstructed labor was observed in 52% of patients. The most found reason for consultation was the feeling of lump in a vagina, with 65%. Grade III according to BADEN-WALKER classification system (BWCS) concerned 72% of our patients. Triple perineal surgery and hysterectomy involved 56% of our patients. Spinal anesthesia was performed in 96% of cases. Per and postoperative complications were dominated by urinary retention in 4% and by infection of the surgical site in 2%. The average hospital stay was 3.2 days. We recorded 88% of satisfied patients after the intervention. No deaths were recorded during the study. The management of genital prolapse remains essentially surgical;it requires a semiological analysis and a mastery of the surgical technique.

Clinical and Therapeutic Aspects of Giant Fibroids at the Hôpital du Mali about 30 Cases

The fibroids affect 20% to 25% of women of reproductive age and are 3 to 9 times more common in black women. We’ll talk about giant fibroids (GFs) when uterine height reaches or exceeds the navel. We have initiated this study in order to report the epidemioclinical and therapeutic aspects of giant fibroids at the Hopital du Mali. A descriptive retro-prospective study, conducted in the service of gynecology of the Hopital du Mali from November 2017 to December 2018 were included in this study, any patients, regardless of their age, having developed a fibroid, the uterin e height of the patient reaching or exceeding the umbilicus on physical examination and who were on surgical treatment. We had collected 30 cases of GFs out of the 92 patients who had undergone myomectomies, with a frequency of 32.60%. The age group 25 - 29 years accounted for 46.6% with an average age of 35 years. Housewives represented 50% and nulligravida made up 33% of our patients. Desire to become pregnant was the main reason for consultation in 34.4% of cases. The uterine height was between 25 and 29 cm on physical examination in 46.66% of cases. Myomectomy was performed in 76.64% and hysterectomy in 23.3% of cases. The size of the nuclei after surgery was over 25 cm in 48.66% of our patients. Conclusion: The giant fibroid (GF) is a common cause of myomectomy. The treatment is either hysterectomy or myomectomy and depends on the indications.

Epidemiological and Histopathological Aspect of Precancerous and Cancerous Lesions of the Cervix in the Health District of Commune 5 of Bamako, the CHU of Point “G” and the Gabriel TouréUniversity Hospital of Bamako in Mali

Objective: The aim was to take stock of the screening and treatment of precancerous and cancerous lesions of the cervix in the health district of commune V of Bamako, the “G” point and the Gabriel Touré University Hospital in Bamako, Mali. Patients and Methods: This was a descriptive, cross-sectional, analytical study with retrospective and prospective data collection over an 8-year period from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2017. This was a multi-center study. Results: From January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2017, 42,492 women were screened, representing a frequency of 24.30%. The median age of the women screened was 32 years;25% were under the age of 25. Three-fourth of the women screened was in the 20 - 49 age group. Of the 22,842 women screened, 90.1% of them had a normal col to IVA/IVL. However, 4.1% of cervical positivity had with acetic acid and 5.1% of positivity to Lugol. 0.7% of the women screened clinically had cancerous lesions. Histologically, 96.5% of the women screened had a normal cervix with benign lesions. For pathological histological findings, we noted 2.6% of precancerous lesions and 0.8% of squamous cell carcinomas and 0.1% of adenocarcinoma. Conclusion: Improved screening indicators with IVA/IV reduce the rate of morbidity and mortality from cervical cancer.

Uterine Leiomyomas Surgery: Assessment of Five Years in the Gynecology Department of Hôpital du Mali

Uterine leiomyomas (myomas) are the most common benign tumors of the female genital tract. They affect 20% to 25% of women of childbearing age and are 3 to 9 times more common in black women. We initiated this study in order to report the socio-demographic aspects and the indications for leiomyomas surgery at Hôpital du Mali. This was a retro-prospective descriptive study, conducted in the gynecology department of Hôpital du Mali from January 1, 2015 to December 31, 2019. Any patients, regardless of their age, in whom a leiomyomas had been detected and surgically treated were included. We had collected 180 cases of surgery for leiomyomas out of 950 surgical procedures, with a frequency of 18.94%. The 36 - 45 age group represented 45% of our patients with an average age of 35 years. Nulligravida accounted for 48.9% and nulliparous (60%). The main reason for consultation was the desire to become pregnant (53.33%). A history of myomectomy was found out in 15.55% of patients. Pelvic ultrasound figured out 64.44% interstitial myomas. Myomectomy was performed in 88.88% of cases and hysterectomy in 11.12% of cases. Among our patients 39.37% had become pregnant. Operative complications were dominated by anemia 14.44%. Leiomyoma was the histological tissue found in all cases of myomectomy. The average duration of hospitalization was 3 days. Conclusion: Leiomyomas surgery is the first scheduled gynecological surgical activity. Laparotomy remains the primary route of entry. The indications are dominated by the desire for pregnancy.
