[Vulvar Darier-Ferrand dermatofibrosarcoma: Unusual localization of a rare tumour (about one case and a review of the literature)]. / Dermatofibrosarcome de Darier-Ferrand vulvaire : une localisation inhabituelle d'une tumeur rare (à propos d'un cas et revue de la littérature).

First described by Darier and Ferrand in 1984, the dermatofibrosarcoma is a fibrous tumour of the skin with high local malignancy, progressive evolution and great opportunity of recidivism. We report unusual case of Darier-Ferrand dermatofibrosarcoma relapsing of the vulva in a 76-year-old female patient. The clinical examination showed a big, rounded mass with fixed consistence. The surgical resection was complete, passing to 3 cm laterally with economy of healthy tissues that leaves the least of functional and esthetical sequelae. The histological examination of the operative piece confirmed the diagnosis. This case shows the huge nature of the mass, the local aggressiveness of the tumour and the possible difficulties of the complete exeresis of the lesion in significant anatomic region.

[Intra-uterine fetal death by knife: case report]. / Mort foetale intra-utérine par arme blanche (à propos d'un cas).

INTRODUCTION: Opened injuries by knife are rare in pregnant women and are responsible of foetal death in most cases. OBSERVATION AND COMMENTARY: We report a case of a 27-years woman, in her 8th months of pregnancy, victim of three knife punchs in her right iliac fossa. An emmergent laparotomy revealed deep wounds in the uterus and its right vascular pedicles, and a right external iliac artery lesion. Hysterectomy was performed and the extracted fetus was dead. He had two wounds in skull and back. Foetal death is common in opened knife injuries especially at the end of pregnancy. On one hand, the fetus has an abdominal situation that expose him to penetrating lesions. On the other hand, the uterus is richly vascularized during this period of pregnancy, thus any uterine or pedicular wound could result in a maternal hemorrhagic shock and hence a poor foetal and maternal prognosis. CONCLUSION: Knife injuries in pregnant women could compromise the foetal prognosis. Managmanent should be early and requires a close collaboration between resuscitators, obstetricians and vascular surgeons.

[Severe neonatal myasthenia with arthrogryposis]. / Myasthénie néonatale sévère avec arthrogrypose: à propos d'un cas et revue de la littérature.

Maternal myasthenia gravis has been associated with the presence of neonatal myasthania and sometimes fetal congenital anomalies. The purpose of this paper is to present an infant with multiple deformations born to a mother with myasthenia gravis. The infant presented with arthrogryposis multiplex and pulmonary hypoplasia. The new born died within the first day of life. Twenty-seven other cases of neonatal myasthenia with arthrogryposis have been reported. Twenty-two of them were stillborn or died. The surviving children needed ventilatory assistance for a long period.

[Pelvic lymphocele: report of a case and review of the literature]. / Lymphocèle pelvienne: un diagnostic à ne pas méconnaître! A propas d'un cas et revue de la littérature

Lymphadenectomy for pelvic cancer can lead to complications, particularly lymphocele. We report a case of pelvic lymphocele, which occurred in a patient who underwent surgery for stage IIa cervical carcinoma after preoperative radiotherapy. The intervention consisted in colpohysterectomy, with lymphadenectomy without peritonisation. Five months later she developed dysuria and pelvic pain. Ultrasound and computed tomography showed a pelvic lymphocele complicated by renal insufficiency. Kidney function was re-established after intraperitoneal marsupialisation. One year later the patient was in good clinical condition with no disorder of kidney function.

[Prevalence of urinary incontinence in Moroccan women. Report of 1,000 cases]. / Prévalence de l'incontinence urinaire chez la femme marocaine. A propos de 1,000 cas.

An inquiry concerning the prevalence of urinary incontinence for the moroccan women has been archived about 1000 women aged more than 18 years to study prevalence, epidemiology and risk factors of urinary incontinence. 271 women among the 1000 women said that they had suffered from the mictional disorder at least one time during the last month, let 27.1%; 48.7% of the incontinent women are from 30 to 60 years; 22.5% are less than 30 years old, and 8.85% are more than 75 years old. Among these 271 women, 49.44% suffered from leakage after making an effort; 42.80% an imperiosity, and 7.76% spontaneous leakage. Seventy per cent among these women had level of study at least medium; 85.97% among these women suffered the discomfort; but 8.48% of them had been consulted for this disorder, 78.96% are able to consult a medical and to have a clinical or paraclinical exams. The elements who are responsible of this disorder are: menopause, parity, the use of forceps, the weight of first child birth over 3.5 kg, the perineal tearing. Among the medical antecedents we find: chronic bronchitis, urinary infections, chronic constipation, diabetes, and in the other way among surgical antecedents are: hysterectomy and prolapsus cure.
