Patients and method: This is a retrospective study, covering the period from January to December 2015, carried out in the ophthalmology unit of the CSREF in Kati. Results: The sample consisted of 568 patients, or 6.82% of ophthalmological consultations. Children aged 0 to 14 years accounted for 154 (27.11%) of the trauma cases. Bruises constitute the main circumstance (58.1%) of eye trauma, followed by domestic accidents (15.6%). Closed globe ocular trauma was the main type of trauma (61.6%), followed by ocular adnexal trauma (30.1%) and open globe trauma (8.3%) in which the penetrating wound was the lesion, the least common (2.6%) but the most serious. Medical treatment was the most used therapeutic modality in 82.4% of cases, followed by surgery with 17.6% of cases. The evolution of the lesions after treatment was favorable in 85.6% of cases and unfavorable in 14.4% of cases. Complications were observed in 5.8% of cases and sequelae in 8.6% of cases. Conclusion: Ocular trauma constitutes an important reason for ophthalmological consultation at the CSREF of Kati. The severity of some of these lesions requires frequent recourse to surgery. The complexity of the treatment should encourage us to favor preventive measures.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

This work is a prospective study from January 2012 to December to analyze the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of acute appendicitis in the Cs ref of commune I of the district of Bamako and the results obtained were then compared with those reported in other countries. Our study included 72 patients. The appendectomy surgical specimens were the subject of an anatomical pathology study at Point G University Hospital in Bamako in Mali, 1.4% of cases of which were healthy. All our operated patients received antibiotics (mono or dual antibiotics) with a post-operative hospitalization duration of 1.5 (36 hours) days on average. We recorded 6 complications such as parietal suppuration, i.e. 8.33% of cases. No 5th day syndrome or late complications were noted. The average length of hospitalization was 36 hours. Abdominal ultrasound;used as an additional examination was carried out in 55 of our patients or 76.39% of cases. We have not recorded any deaths. Raising awareness among patients about the dangers of complications motivated patients to undergo surgery as soon as possible.展开更多
