Endoscopie digestive haute à l'hôpital national de Zinder: indications et résultats / Upper digestive endoscopy at Zinder National Hospital: indications and results

Objectif : déterminer les indications et résultats de l'endoscopie digestive haute (EDH) à l'Hôpital National de Zinder. Matériels et méthodes : il s'agit d'une analyse rétrospective des comptes rendus d'EDH, à partir des registres d'endoscopie digestive du 1er Janvier 2020 au 28 Février 2021, portant sur 667 examens, soit une fréquence mensuelle de 48 EDH. . Résultats : l'âge moyen des patients était de 38,98±14,84 (13-80 ans) avec un sex ratio de 1,02. Les épigastralgies représentent 42,8% (n= 363) d'indication d'EDH, la dyspepsie 15,2% (n=129), les douleurs abdominales diffuses 11,9% (n= 101), les vomissements 8,1% (n= 69), la recherche des signes endoscopiques d'hypertension portale 5,1% (n= 43), la dysphagie 4,9% (n=42) et les hémorragies digestives 3,2% (n=27). Selon le segment anatomique concerné, l'estomac comptait pour 55,51% (n=419), l'œsophage 19,6% (n=148) et le duodénum 6,68% (n=50). Les lésions inflammatoires représentent 63,04% (n=475), les ulcères 6,65% (n=50), les tumeurs 3,03% (n=23) et les lésions diverses 27,28% (n=205). La biopsie était réalisée chez 22 patients (3,46%) et 10 comptes rendus histologiques étaient parvenus, repartis en 06 adénocarcinomes gastriques, 02 gastriques chroniques avec métaplasie intestinale, 01 carcinome épidermoÏde de l'œsophage et 01 polype gastrique hyperplasique. Conclusion : Les épigastralgies dominent les indications de l'EDH. La pathologie digestive haute est certes dominée par les lésons inflammatoires, mais les ulcères et les tumeurs sont de plus en plus diagnostiqués. Ces lésions allaient être mieux évaluées si des biopsies systématiques étaient réalisées chez nos patient

Objective: to determine the indications and results of upper digestive endoscopy (EDH) at the Zinder National Hospital. Materials and methods: this is a retrospective analysis of EDH reports, from digestive endoscopy registers from January 1, 2020 to February 28, 2021, covering 667 examinations, or a monthly frequency of 48 EDH. Results: the average age of patients was 38.98±14.84 (13-80 years) with a sex ratio of 1.02. Epigastralgia represents 42.8% (n = 363) of indication of EDH, dyspepsia 15.2% (n = 129), diffuse abdominal pain 11.9% (n = 101), vomiting 8.1% (n = 69), search for endoscopic signs of portal hypertension 5.1% (n = 43), dysphagia 4.9% (n = 42) and digestive hemorrhages 3.2% (n = 27Depending on the anatomical segment concerned, the stomach accounted for 55.51% (n=419), the esophagus 19.6% (n=148) and the duodenum 6.68% (n=50). Inflammatory lesions account for 63.04% (n=475), ulcers 6.65% (n=50), tumours 3.03% (n=23) and miscellaneous lesions 27.28% (n=205). The biopsy was performed in 22 patients (3.46%) and 10 histological reports were obtained, divided into 06 gastric adenocarcinomas, 02 chronic gastric with intestinal metaplasia, 01 epidermoidal carcinoma of the esophagus and 01 hyperplastic gastric polypConclusion: Epigastralgia dominates the indications of HRE. Upper digestive pathology is certainly dominated by inflammatory lesons, but ulcers and tumors are increasingly diagnosed. These lesions would be better evaluated if systematic biopsies were performed in our patients

Comparison of colonic J-pouch and straight coloanal anastomosis after low anterior resection for rectal carcinoma: a meta-analysis of 8 randomized trails / 中华外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To evaluate the effect of colonic J-pouch coloanal anastomosis after low anterior resection for mid or low rectal cancer on improving defecation and anorectal physiology.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>To make a meta-analysis, prospective randomized controlled trial of with or without colonic J-pouch after low anterior resection for mid or low rectal cancer was conducted. The key words included rectal cancer, J-pouch (or J-pouch) and those randomized from selected reports. The data on bowel function and physiological function of the anal canal and (neo) rectum were meta-analyzed using fixed effect model and random effect model.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Eight randomized trails including 378 patients entered this study. After one year follow-up, the functional results showed that there were significant differences in stool frequency per day, urgency and use of medication between colonic J-pouch group and straight coloanal anastomosis group. On physiological function of the anal canal and (neo) rectum, there was significant difference only in rectal compliance between the two groups. But there was no significant difference in other 4 items.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The functional improvement gained from colonic J-pouch coloanal anastomosis continues to benefit the patient with mid or low rectal cancer for at least 12 months. It is necessary to further study about the effect of colonic J-pouch coloanal anastomosis on physiological function of the anal canal and (neo) rectum.</p>
