ABSTRACT

Introduction : L'étude épidémiologique transversale ENDORSE montrait une forte prévalence 52% des patients hospitalisés présentant un risque de MTEV dans le monde dont 64% de patients en chirurgie. Ce risque est encore plus élevé pendant la période obstétricale. Objectif : Evaluer les connaissances et attitudes pratiques sur la prévention de la maladie thrombo-embolique du personnel des services de gynécologie-obstétriques de Côte d'Ivoire. Méthodes : Etude multicentrique, mixte, transversale descriptive avec 198 questionnaires anonymes correctement remplis retenus soit 61,9% et un taux de non-réponses élevé de 19% dans les CHU de Côte d'Ivoire destinés au Personnel soignant des structures concernées ayant donné leur consentement libre et éclairé sur une période de 4 mois allant du 1er avril au 31 juillet 2016. La collecte et le traitement des données a été réalisée grâce aux logiciels Epidata et Epi Info 7.Résultats : L'âge moyen était de 39,3 ans avec des extrêmes de 27 et 60 ans et 58,6% du personnel avait moins de 5 années d'activités dans le service. Il s'agissait en majorité des sages-femmes (60,1%) suivi du personnel médical (39,9%). Soixante et onze virgule quatre pour cent (71,4%) jugeaient leur niveau de connaissances suffisant. Les facteurs de risques les plus cités par le personnel médical et paramédical étaient l'immobilisation prolongée (92,4% et 82,4%) suivie de la chirurgie pelvienne (89,9% et 64,7%) et de la contraception orale (86,1% et 51,3%). Trente-huit pour cent des médecins instauraient une héparinothérapie après un accouchement par voie basse contre 95% pour un accouchement par césarienne. Quatre-vingt-six virgule sept pour cent (86,7%) des médecins débutaient l'héparinothérapie préventive entre 12 et 24 heures du post-partum quel que soit le mode d'accouchement, pendant au moins 3 semaines pour 78% d'entre eux.Conclusion : Cette étude montre une connaissance et des attitudes pratiques approximatives d'où la nécessité d'une formation continue du personnel et l'éducation des patients afin d'assurer l'amélioration continue de la qualité des soins

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: We described the use of antiretroviral drugs to prevent HIV transmission among children and adolescents victims of rape in Abidjan (Ivory Coast). MATERIALS AND METHOD: We conducted a retrospective and descriptive study on children (0-9 years) and adolescents (10-19 years) victims of rape between 2000 and 2013. We analyzed the patients' socio-demographic characteristics and the modality of the chemoprophylaxis. RESULTS: We included 10 children and 89 adolescents in the study. The median age was 16 years old (3-19 years). The median time to consultation was 23.5 hours (5-152 hours). The antiretroviral chemoprophylaxis was administered to 92 patients (93%). No HIV and HBV seroconversion was observed after a 3-month follow-up. CONCLUSION: A better management of rape victims is required in Abidjan.

ABSTRACT

Umbilical endometriosis is a very uncommon condition which presents as a pigmented umbilical nodule, papular or cystic, with symptoms punctuated rhythmed by menses. The authors report the case of a 32-year-old with spontaneous umbilical endometriosis. Surgical resection was performed with a good cosmetic result and no recurrence at six months. A review of the literature allowed the authors to discuss the diagnosis difficulties and treatment in a underdeveloped country.

ABSTRACT

The authors report one case of bowel prolapse through uterus following induced abortion. The eviscerated bowel was completely gangrenous, devoided from its mesentery and entrapped in the uterus wall. The treatment was a bowel resection and ileo-ileum anastomosis; the uterus was evacuated of retained products of conception and then sutured. The patient recovered uneventfully; fertility prognosis is expected to be poor because of abortion sequelae. If the abortion law still remains in Ivory Coast, more effort should be directed at reducing the incidence of unwanted pregnancy. This could be best archived by a better information on contraception and better health education programs.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to assess the tolerability and adherence to all non-occupational post-exposure prophylaxis (PEP) for cases of HIV exposure in Abidjan. METHOD: We retrospectively studied all post-exposure prophylaxis for non-occupational exposures to HIV prescribed from January 1st, 2000 to December 31st, 2007 in the Abidjan infectious diseases department. We analyzed the types of exposure, socio-demographic characteristics of patients, antiretroviral therapy regimens, adherence and tolerability, duration of the treatment, and post-exposure follow-up. RESULTS: Over these eight years, we managed 128 consultations for non-professional exposures to HIV (50 male [39%], 78 female patients [61%]), average age 24.8 years (four-54 years). The most frequent exposures were due to rape (n=74), condom rupture (n=29), and occasional unprotected sex (n=21). The average delay before consultation was 20.8 hours. The antiretroviral chemoprophylaxis included a protease inhibitor in 93% of the cases; 80.5% of patients completed 28 days of chemoprophylaxis, while 8.6% interrupted the treatment, and 10.9% were lost to follow-up. The most frequent adverse effects were gastrointestinal, reported by 79 patients (61.7%). Only 34 patients (26.6%) returned for clinical and biological post-exposure follow-up with HIV control at third month, without documented seroconversion. CONCLUSION: Cases of sexual exposure to HIV are the main indication for post-exposure prophylaxis in Abidjan, except for occupational exposure to blood. However, post-exposure prophylaxis should be available in the units of primary care, such as emergencies departments.

ABSTRACT

A case of Buruli ulcer with primitive breast localisation with evident epidemiological and clinical aspects is reported. This localisation is exceptional; the differential diagnosis with breast cancer is essential. If diagnosed early, it can be cured with surgery, broad-spectrum antibiotherapy and thermotherapy.

ABSTRACT

Tubercolosis is a frequent bacterial infection in less developed countries. Lung and lymph node localisations are common, while the genital apparatus is less involved. In this work a rare case of cervical tuberculosis followed by some lesions causing infertility in a 20-year-old woman is reported. The diagnosis was confirmed by a histological examination from a biopsy of the cervix. The patient was offered six-month antituberculosis therapy which eliminated the cervical lesions. A few years later she came under our care for infertility due to uterine adhesions diagnosed by hysterosalpingography. Now the patient is being treated for infertility complicated by amenorrhoea.

ABSTRACT

A multicentric and prospective survey has been carried out in simple blind from August 1998 to May 2000 at Yopougon and Treichville Teaching Hospitals on 185 patients having undergone an emergency or sheduled surgical intervention for a non septic gynaecological affection. Ninety five patients were discharged early just after bowel motion, and ninety others left seven days after the surgical intervention. The authors compared the complications observed in the two modes of discharge and showed that there is no meaningful difference between their respective frequencies. In a more general way it has not been identified particular risk factors of post-operative complications.

ABSTRACT

Torsion of the gravid uterus around its cervical junction is a rare event especially in humans. In 1992, a literature review by Jensen, mentioned by Carbonne, showed 212 cases with different etiologies. Uterine torsion is more frequently dextrorotatory (2/3 of cases). The diagnosis is difficult and generally done during cesarean section because it is frequently not symptomatic. Uterine torsion signs, when present, are not specifics. Pain, nausea and vomiting may present without any sign of shock, as in our patient. Sometimes ultrasonography can lead to a correct diagnosis, showing a modification of the placenta site during pregnancy, or an abnormal positioning of the ovarian vessels which pass in front of the lower uterine segment. Some authors report cardiotocographic abnormalities probably due to the reduction of blood flow caused by the torsion. Quickness of surgical treatment is fundamental for the reduction of fetal mortality which is very frequent in a large number of cases, while maternal mortality is not so frequent but possible. A diligent anamnesis and ultrasonographic examination are surely useful to single out the rare cases of uterine torsion in pregnancy.
