The objective is to determine hospital frequency, identify favorable factors and key etiologies, and assess the rate of morbi-mortality. <strong>Patients and Method:</strong> This is a retrospective and descriptive study carried out in the general surgery departments of the Teaching Hospitals of Point “G”, Gabriel TOURE and the pediatric surgery department of the Gabriel TOURE University Hospital in Bamako, involving 53 patients. The study ran from January 1, 2005 to December 31, 2007. <strong>Inclusion Criteria:</strong> All cases of postoperative acute evisceration operated. <strong>Non-Inclusion Criteria:</strong> All cases of evisceration of other etiologies. <strong>Results:</strong> The average age was 34.2 years with extremes of 6 and 75 years, the sex ratio was 1.12 in favor of women. The initial clinical picture was peritonitis in 26 cases or 49.1%, occlusion in 16 cases or 30.2% and tumors in 6 cases or 11.3%. The post-operative complications responsible for evisceration were: parietal suppuration 28 cases or 52.8%;digestive fistulas 15 cases or 28.3%;post-operative ascites 4 cases or 7.5%. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Post-operative acute evisceration is a rare but serious condition due to morbidity and mortality.展开更多
