Among its risk factors, urinary bilharzia is endemic in our study area. The aim of our study was to present the epidemiological, clinical and histopathological aspects of bladder cancer in our department. <strong>Patients and method:</strong> This was a descriptive cross-sectional study over a 12-month period from January 1 to December 31, 2019. The study took place in the urology department of the university hospital Point “G”. It included all patients hospitalized for bladder cancer. The epidemiological, clinical and histopathological characteristics have been sought and described. <strong>Results:</strong> A total of 74 patients were included in the study. Bladder cancer was the leading cause of cancer, accounting for 57.9% of all urological cancers. The mean age of the patients was 52.8 ± 16.25 years. A slight male predominance was observed with a sex-ratio of 1.2. Housewives were the most represented with 43.2% followed by farmers with 24.3%. Hematuria was the reason for consultation in 87.8% cases. The main risk factors found were urinary schistosomiasis (48.6%) and smoking (31.1%). These two factors were associated in 23.0% of cases. At diagnosis, 85.7% of patients were classified as T3 or T4 stage. Squamous cell carcinoma with 58.2% was the most common histological type followed by urothelial carcinoma in 26.0% of cases. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> Bladder cancer is very common of cancer in hospitalized patients in our department. Diagnosis is more often made at an advanced stage. The most common histological type is squamous cell carcinoma.展开更多

We aim to report our experience in the practice of this surgical technique. <strong>Patients and method:</strong> This was a prospective and descriptive study of penile skin flap urethroplasty indicated for urethral stenosis between January 2014 and December 2019. <strong>Results:</strong> A total of 21 penile skin flap urethroplasties for urethral stenosis were performed. The average age was 38.6 years old. The stenosis was of sclero-inflammatory origin in 15 cases (71.43%). It was of bulbo-perineal, penile, and penile-bulbar topography in about a third each. A history of urethral surgery was reported in 80.95% of the cases. The average length of the stenosis was 6.8 cm. Mundy circular skin flap urethroplasty about 15 cases (71.43%), and Quartey rectangular skin penile flap urethroplasty about 6 cases (28.57%) were the surgical techniques performed. The postoperative follow-up was favorable in 19 cases (90.48%). Two cases of urethral fistula (9.52%) underwent the 2<sup>nd</sup> urethroplasty. Urination at 1 year was satisfactory. No relapse has been reported to date. However, 4 patients (19.04%) reported asthenic ejaculation, and 1 patient (4.76%) a marked decrease in sexual pleasure. <strong>Conclusion:</strong> This surgical technique is effective in terms of voiding when the surgical indications are well chosen. The sexual aspect must be taken into account and the intervention only offered to those who really need it.展开更多
