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

It is most often secondary to perforation of the digestive organ and/or the spread of an intra-abdominal septic focus. The absence of a study on peritonitis in a reference health center motivated us for this work. The aim of this study was to study the inadequacies that could be seen in the management of peritonitis in the CSRef(s). We carried out a retrospective study of 40 patients received at the CSRéf of commune I for acute generalized peritonitis from 2011 to 2012. The average age was 30.1 years with a standard deviation of 3.4;extremes ranging from 14 years to 60 years and a Sex ratio = 1.22 (22 men out of 18 women). Abdominal pain was the main reason for consultation (present in all our patients). In most cases, clinical examination alone made it possible to make the diagnosis. Surgical treatment depended on the etiology (appendectomy associated with washing-drainage was the most commonly performed surgical procedure). All our patients received general anesthesia. The average length of hospitalization was 7 days with extremes ranging from 1 to 15 days. We noted a Morbidity rate of 22.5%, dominated by wall abscesses and a mortality of 2.5%. The delay in consultation and referrals constitutes a factor in mortality and high morbidity.展开更多

In the vast majority of cases, it is secondary to a benign or malignant tumor. Small bowel malignancies are relatively rare, 1% - 5% of malignant tumors of the gastrointestinal tract. Acute intussusception, a rare pathology in adults, often presents with non-specific symptoms. Contrary to children, the organic origin remains preponderant in the elderly, where the origin of neoplasia must be suspected in first intention. We report the case of a 49-year-old patient admitted urgently from the Luxembourg “Mère Enfant” hospital center in Bamako, Mali, for an occlusive syndrome. Several abdomino-pelvic ultrasounds were performed in several clinics with mixed conclusions: Hydro-aeric distension and a cessation of matter and gas without a clearly visible mass (04/09/2022);Demonstration of the central hydro-aeric levels wider than high containing fine and regular folds corresponding to connivents whose aspect is in factor of left acute small intestine occlusion, to be completed by the surgical opinion (06/09/2022) and a third ultrasound showed a normal appearance of the liver, gallbladder, kidneys, pancreas, spleen, bladder and prostate;diffuse aero-colic distention without lesion of secondary appearance (21/11/2022). A frontal standing ASP dated 11/25/2022 showed hail-like hydro-aeric levels. Surgical management consisted of an open oncological resection of an obstructive bowel tumor with ileo-ileal invagination. The anatomopathological and immunohistochemical study of the surgical specimen concluded to diffuse small cell non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, without vascular embolism. The resection limits pass into the healthy zone.展开更多

They are on guard duty day and night. To carry out this work we have set ourselves the following objectives: Study digestive surgical emergencies in the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako;Determine the frequency of digestive surgical emergencies;Describe the clinical and therapeutic aspects, and Analyze the results of treatment. From January 2016 to December 2016, the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako carried out 200 digestive surgical emergencies whose files were usable;119 men and 81 women, a sex ratio of 1.5. The average age was 32.67 years;66% medical evacuation. Abdominal pain was the main reason for consultation. In the majority of cases, the physical examination made it possible to make the diagnosis. Faced with certain doubtful cases, we requested paraclinical examinations (ultrasound, ASP and the rhesus group). The main etiology was acute appendicitis with 59% of cases. The frequency of digestive surgical emergencies was 35.1% of all activities of the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako. The postoperative course was complicated in 4% of cases. Surgical site infections were the most common postoperative complications, accounting for 3% of our patients. One death was noted, i.e. 0.5% of our sample. Acute peritonitis was the cause of death in 100% of cases.展开更多
