The concomitant presence of rheumatoid arthritis and sickle cell disease makes the therapeutic management of both conditions problematic. Observation - A 24-year-old man, a nurse by profession, has been followed for 10 years for homozygous sickle cell disease at the Sickle Cell Disease Research Center (CRLD) of Bamako, Mali. He has presented for 8 months symmetrical polyarthritis with morning stiffness of 3 hours, distinct from the usual vaso-occlusive crisis. The Analog Visual Scale was estimated at 80/100. He reported unquantified weight loss and asthenia. The physical examination showed a deformity in bilateral ulnar deviation, flexion of the right elbow, twelve painful joints, and five swollen joints. Normochromic normocytic anemia (hemoglobin 8.3g/dl), inflammatory syndrome with C - Reactive Pro...

A survey was conducted to evaluate fertility in patients who underwent endoscopic management for ectopic pregnancy. A retrospective study was conducted at the department of general and endoscopic surgery of the Point "G" teaching hospital, in Bamako, Mali, from January 1st 2007 to December 31, 2016. Forty-eight (48) patients who underwent endoscopic management of tubal ectopic pregnancy and who have been followed up for fertility were included in this study. Statistical tests used were X2 or Fisher test and their confident interval, p <1 % has been considered as statistically significant. The therapeutic score of Pouly was less than 4 in 25.0% (n = 12). The return to fertility was observed among 48.0% of patients (n = 23). The chance of conception was less than 80.0% after the fourth postoperative year (p=0.001). The outcome of pregnancies has been seven...

Indeed, it is a Affection obstetrical condition whose maternal-fetal prognosis is poor in terms of morbidity and mortality. Objectives: To assess the risk factors for uterine rupture in the Koutiala Health District. Methods: This was a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional prospective collection study from January 1, 2019 to December 31, 2019, a 12-month period. In our study, all patients admitted to the maternity ward were included during the study period for which the diagnosis of uterine rupture was made. Results: Out of a total of deliveries, we recorded 27 cases of uterine rupture, a frequency of 1.04%. The average age of our patients was 32 years with extremes of 19 and 45 years. We notice 92.6% of uterine ruptures during the transfer. Almost 3/4 of our parturients were out of school 70.4% versus 11.1% in primary school and 18.5% in secondary school. The majority of patients affected by uterine rupture came from rural areas 85.2%. Only 14.8% were from Koutiala city. The admission time to the Koutiala Reference Health Centre was 2 hours 30 minutes in 50.85% of our patients with extremes of 15 minutes and 4 hours 30 min. The average parity was 6.30-3036; large multiparous accounted for 63% in our sample followed by multiparous 18.5%. As for pregnancy follow-up, 100% of the patients had not performed any prenatal consultations. In 85.2% hysterrhaphy was performed intervention and hysterectomy in 14.8%. Maternal prognosis was satisfactory in 96.30% of cases.

Laparoscopy, also called minimally invasive surgery or keyhole surgery, is an operative technique that permits to explore the pelvis and perform an appropriate therapeutic procedure. The objective of our work was to assess the role of laparoscopic surgery in the treatment of female infertility at Hôpital du Mali. It was a retrospective descriptive study that was conducted over a period of 5 years (January 2013 to December 2018). Any patients followed for infertility and who underwent laparoscopic surgery in the gynecology department over a period of two (2) years were included. The outcome of laparoscopic surgery was evaluated in terms of conception of pregnancy. We had collected 103 infertile patients out of 2984, with a frequency of 3.45%. The mean age of our patients was 30.2 years. Housewives and out-of-school women accounted for 68.93% and 54.37% respectively. Nulligravida represented 41.75%. Regarding infertility, it was primary in 41.75% and secondary in 58.25%, with an average duration of 6.2 years. Systematic chlamydial serology was positive in 62.14% of our patients. Hysterosalpingography (HSG) revealed bilateral tubal obstruction in 53.33% of cases. Laparoscopy found tubal adhesions in 97.80% of cases. Adhesiolysis was the main procedure performed with 84.47% bilateral tubal patency achieved in the methylene blue test. Among our patients who had contracted a pregnancy (22.99%), 85% had carried their pregnancies to term. Tubal damage was the main cause of infertility. Adhesiolysis remains the main laparoscopic procedure for treatment.

Materials and Methods: This was a descriptive analytical cross-sectional study of the Type Cas/Witnesses at the Reference Health Centre of Commune V of the District of Bamako in Mali. The sample consisted of 100 cases for 200 controls (1 case for 2 controls) with retrospective collection of data for the period from January 1 to July 11, 2011 (6 months and 11 days). Results: During the study period, out of a total of 3559 deliveries, we recorded 2,794 vaginal deliveries, 78.50% and 765 caesarean sections or 21.50%. Of the 765ceras, we performed 353 emergency caesarean sections or 46.15% and 412 prophylactic caesarean sections 53.85%. We have selected 100 prophylactic caesarean section files and 200 emergency caesarean section files. The average age of the patients was 27.41 years-5.84 with extreme ages of 14 to 40 years. 100% of our patients (Cas) had performed at least one antenatal consultation compared to 83.5% of the parturients evacuated (Witnesses). The most frequently cited reasons for evacuation were: acute fetal suffering, non-cephalic presentation and excessive uterine height with 30%, 17.5% and 12% respectively.

Patient and Methods: This was a descriptive, cross-sectional, analytical, retrospective and prospective study based on a comprehensive de-engineering. It covered a 3-year period from January 1, 2010 to December 31, 2012 and involved 176 cases. Results: The incidence of eclampsia during the study period was 2.9%. Classically, it occurred in 74.4% in young primigeste, in 73.9% in the 3 rd trimester of pregnancy and 26.1% of cases during postpartum. We recorded maternal complications such as retro-placental hematoma, acute kidney failure and delivery hemorrhage. The case fatality rate was 2.3% or 4 cases of maternal death. At the fetal level, there was 29.5% prematurity, 31.8% neonatal suffering, 11.4% hypotrophy, 11.9% in utero fetal death and 7.4% early neonatal death. Conclusion: The maternal-fetal prognosis remains reserved despite the progress made in the management of eclampsia in our services.

An infection is said to be associated with the care if it occurs during or after the care of a patient, and if it was neither present nor incubation at the beginning of the care. Objective: The purpose of this work was to study the bacteriology of infections associated with obstetric care in the gynecology-obstetrics department of CHU Gabriel Touré. Patients and Methods: This is an epidemiological, descriptive, analytical study conducted in the gynecology-obstetrics department of the CHU Gabriel Touré, from April 11 th , 2016 to August 29 th , 2016 (5 months). Data collection focused on the clinical and laboratory characteristics of healthcare-associated infections in patients during their hospitalization. Included in the study were any patients hospitalized in the Gynecology and Obstetrics Department who agreed to participate in the study. The criteria used to diagnose the associated infection were those of the Atlanta CDC. Operative wound monitoring was done up to the 30th postoperative day. Results: We have recorded 200 patients, out of whom 138 were operated on and 23 cases of bacterial infection associated with care (11.50%). The average age of the patients was 32.52 years ± 13.36 years against 29.36 years ± 10.28 years for the patients who did not present the infection. Seven point five percent of the evacuated patients had an infection associated with care. The most common types of infection were surgical site infection (60.86%), urinary tract infection (26.
