RESUMO
Appendiceal duplication is the very rare malformation. It was first described by Picoli in 1892. It is a condition that is most often seen in the first years of life, sometimes some forms may remain asymptomatic and only occur in adulthood. We report the case of appendiceal duplication in a patient operated for chilled appendix breastplate at Gao Regional Hospital. CONCLUSION: appendiceal duplication is a rare abnormal abnormality of intraoperative discovery in general. Each surgeon must think about it during an appendectomy.
La duplication appendiculaire est une malformation très rare. Elle a été décrite pour la première fois par Picoli en 1892. C'est une affection qui se manifeste le plus souvent dans les premières années de vie, parfois certaines formes peuvent rester asymptomatiques et ne s'expriment qu'à l'âge adulte. Nous rapportons le cas de duplication appendiculaire chez une patiente opérée pour plastron appendiculaire refroidi à l'hôpital régional de Gao. CONCLUSION: la duplication appendiculaire est une anomalie malformative rare de découverte per opératoire en général. Chaque chirurgien doit y penser au cours d'une appendicectomie.
RESUMO
INTRODUCTION: The incisional hernia is a frequent complication of the opened abdominal surgery. The objectives of this study were to determine the hospital frequency and the favoritizing factors, to analyze the therapeutic aspects. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We realized a retrospective study from January, 1999 to December, 2005 in the services of general and paediatric surgery of teaching hospital Gabriel Touré. It concerned 45 cases of incisional hernia. The hernias of the abdominal wall, the abdominal and traumatic hernia were not retained. RESULTS: The frequency was 0.52%; the average age of our patients was 37.8 years with a sex ratio of 2 in favour of the woman. The average delay of consultation was of 59 months with extremes going from 2 to 11 months. Favoritizing factors found were the parietal suppuration to 13 (28.8%) patients and the multiple interventions to 8 (17.8%) patients. The average dimension of the hernia was 9.5 cms ± 3.8 with extremes going from 5 to 14 cms. The 45 patients benefited from the cure of the hernia according to Mayo. We didn't lost any patient. 2 parietal suppurations happened post-operatively. CONCLUSION: Incisional hernia treatment consists for Mayo's method or prosthesis. The laparoscopic surgery can reduce complications.
