The aim of our study was to study hydro-electrolyte disorders in brain-damaged patients, to describe the clinical aspects, to identify the contributing factors and to determine the prognosis of these patients in the intensive care unit of gabriel touré teaching hospital. <strong>Material and Methods:</strong> It was a prospective cross-sectional study, descriptive of a period of 11 months going from June 2015 to April 2016 in the intensive care unit of CHU Gabriel TOURE we included all the cerebral patients admitted in intensive care in which hydro-ionic disorders have detected on arrival or during hospitalization. Data were collected through transfer sheets, a survey sheet and medical records. Data entry and analysis were done respectively on SPSS software (version 19) and Microsoft Word Starter 2010 software. <strong>Results:</strong> During our study, out of 450 hospitalization patients, we identified 110 brain-damaged patients and 75 patients were retained in our study, i.e. a prevalence of 16.6%. Male was predominant with 72% with a sex ratio of 2.5 the age group 20 - 50 years was majority with 45.3%, the average age was 38.49 years. The majority of patients (58.7%) were admitted from the emergency department. The most common reason for admission was impairment of consciousness in 94.7% (Table 1) of cases and the Glasgow admission score was less than or equal to 8 in 58.7% (Table 1) of patients. Hydro-electrolyte disturbances were present in 93.3% of patients on admission. Hyponatremia was the most common disorder with 56% (42 cases). Followed by hyperkalaemia 10.7% (8 cases), hypernatremia 9.3% (7 cases), at hypocalcemia 9.3% (7 cases), associated disorders 8% (6 cases). Brain CT was performed in 52% of the patients. In our study, malaria was the most common etiology of ionic disorders with 36%. Of the patients who died, 80% had developed hyponatremia after 5 days in hospital, and the overall lethality was 73.3%. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Hydro-electrolyte disorders are frequent in the intensive care setting and their management must be rapid in order to reduce morbidity and mortality.展开更多

It represents only 0.5% to 1% of all cases of endometriosis. We report a case in a 28-year-old nulligest, nulliparous woman who consulted at the CSREF CII in Bamako. The diagnosis was suspected with the presence of umbilical swelling with cyclic, painful, dark hemorrhage of firm consistency. We performed an omphalectomy with an uncomplicated postoperative course. She was released from the hospital three days post-surgery. Anatomo-pathological examination of the resected specimen confirmed the diagnosis of umbilical endometriosis.展开更多

Thus, it is a site of stasis, urinary infection, formation of calculus or even malignant tumor. The diverticula of the urethra or sub-urethral pouches in women have a prevalence of 0.5% to 6% depending on the series. We report the case of a 61-year-old patient operated for a diverticulum on fistulized urethra complicated lithiasis. Our patient had five pregnancies and five births when she consulted for dysuria, urinary burns evolving since a year. The urogenital examination revealed a partially stenotic urethral meatus and a 3-cm large fistulized intravaginal peri-urethral mass allowing urine leak. The mass was painful and hard at palpation. We performed transvaginal diverticulectomy. The follow-up was simple and the probe was removed two weeks after the surgery. An atomo-pathological examination of the resected diverticulum concluded an aspect compatible with lithiasis urethritis.展开更多

They are accompanied by major morbidity with severe sequelae. The polytraumatized is defined as a serious trauma with several bodily injuries, at least one of which is life-threatening in the very short term. The initial hospital care must not barely delay and directly affect the prognosis. In developing countries, the absence of pre-hospital medicine means that mortality is still very high, which leads us to initiate this work, which aims to study the epidemiological and clinical aspects of polytrauma in emergency and in resuscitation of Gabriel Toure University Hospital. Material and Methods: This was a retrospective study that took place over a period of ten (10) months from February to November 2016. We included all patients received for polytrauma emergency hosting service. The data were collected using a surveycard. Results: During our study period, we collected a total of 200 polytraumatized cases out of a total of 16,141 patients admitted to the emergency hosting service, a prevalence of 1.3%. The age group of 20 - 29 years was the most represented with average age of 32.39 years. The male sex was predominant with 65% with a sex ratio of 1.9. The students were the most represented with 24%. The trauma occurred at 22.5% between 8:00 and 12:00 am, the public road was the main place of the trauma with 57.5% of the cases. Two-wheeled vehicles were involved in the accident in 68.9% of cases. The delay between trauma and admission was minus 6 hours in 70.5% of cases, 15.5% had a Glasgow lessthan 8% and 44.5% PAS Conclusion: The polytrauma is clinical situation putting the patients vital prognosis at stake. The haemorrhage is the origin of the student mortality. The installation of rigorous diagnostic system and a pre-hospital medicine will reduce the morbi-mortality.展开更多
