Objective: Evaluate the maternal-fetal prognosis of artificial induction with misoprostol at the referral health center of the commune II. Methods: This is a cross-sectional, prospective, descriptive and analytical study which took place from September 1, 2019 to December 31, 2020. Included in the study were pregnant women carrying an evolving or terminated single-fetal pregnancy of at least 28 WA in cephalic presentation on a healthy uterus. The trigger has been made with 50 μg misoprostol administered sublingually into the posterior vaginal fornix. The dose was renewed as needed every 6 hours, until sufficient uterine contractions were obtained without exceeding 200 μg. Results: The frequency of artificial induction of labor was 1.25%. Indications were dominated by premature rupture of membranes (29.8%), overdue (19.1%), high blood pressure (19.1%), suitability of pregnant women (14.9%) and terminated pregnancies (10.6%). The vaginal delivery rate was 85.1% The Apgar score was greater than or equal to 7 in 83.3% of cases at the 1stminute. Maternal morbidity was marked by postpartum hemorrhage due to uterine atony in 4.3% cases. No maternal and neonatal deaths were noted. Conclusion: Induction of labor with misoprostol is a safe and effective method if careful selection of patients is made.展开更多

Materials and Methods: This was a cross-sectional, descriptive study with data collection over a period of 10 years;The data collection was retrospective over nine years from January 1, 2013 to December 31, 2021 and prospective over one year from January 1, 2022 to December 31, 2022. This study focused on all patients whose death was noted on arrival during pregnancy, labor or in the postpartum period in the Gynecology-Obstetrics Department of Fousseyni Daou Hospital. Confidentiality and anonymity were respected. The processing and analysis of statistical data were carried out using SPSS 20.0 software. Results: During the study period, we recorded 93 cases of death noted on arrival out of a total of 606 maternal deaths, i.e., a frequency of 15.34%. The average age was 27 years with the extremes of 20 years and 34 years. They came mainly from rural areas at 74%, were married at 82%, uneducated at 51.6%, housewives at 87.1%. The profession of the spouses is worker at 37.6%. In our sample, evacuated patients were the most represented with 75.3%. Postpartum hemorrhage was the most frequent reason for admission with 22.6%. The deceased patients had no medical history at 86%. In our series, 59.5% of the deceased patients had not had antenatal consultations (CPN). Patients who died on arrival and who had given birth at home were the most represented with 54.8%. Deaths from immediate postpartum hemorrhage complicated by shock were the most frequent with 25.8% followed by severe anemia 8.6%. Deaths were mainly due to direct obstetric causes at 76.3%. In these deaths observed on arrival, the 2nd delay was identified at 48.4%. Conclusion: Maternal deaths observed on arrival remain frequent in the Kayes region. The main causes are immediate postpartum hemorrhage and anemia, which are almost all preventable causes of maternal death following the 1st and 2nd delay.展开更多

Goal: To describe the epidemio-clinical aspects and the medical management of sexual assault in the Segou region. Methodology: This was a retro-prospective descriptive study from September 2010 to September 2018 on the alleged female victims of sexual assault registered in the Gynecology and Obstetrics departments of the hospital and the sanitary quarters of Ségou. Results: We recorded 107 cases of sexual assault out of 47,729 gynecological consultations, representing a hospital prevalence of 0.22%. The victims were between 10 and 15 years old in 48.59% of the cases. Students were the most represented with 53.27% (57/107) of cases. Genito-genital contact was recorded in 90.65% (97/107) of cases. Vulvo-perineal lesions were present in 44.86% (48/107) of survivors. Hymenial deflowering was the most frequent traumatic genital lesion accounting for 43.70% (21/48) of old cases and 27.00% (13/48) of recent cases. Sexual assault was committed by a single individual in 60.75% (65/107) of cases and by a friend of the victim in 21.5% (23/107) of cases. The survivors had consulted within 24 hours of the sexual assault in 53.27% (57/107) of the cases, the treatment was medical in 68.22% (73/107) and medical-surgical in 4.7% (5/107), post-exposure prophylaxis to the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) was performed in only 26.16% (28/107) of survivors. Conclusion: Sexual assault remains a concern although its frequency is low. This scourge mainly affects children and adolescents, and the lesions are mainly genitals.展开更多

We found it important to report this case in order to share our experience on the management of penis rings. It was a 9-year-old child, with no particular medical-surgical history, nor any notion of known family defect, brought to the emergency room by his parents for intense pain in the penis associated with incessant crying. In front of which a clinical examination made it possible to conclude with penile strangulation by a metal ring. Our course of action was the ablation of the ring with non-medical forceps associated with local and general care. No complications were observed during treatment. The immediate consequences were simple and the patient was followed for 4 months.展开更多
