We present the case of a partial amputation of the shaft in the context of a domestic accident. This is a 53-year-old patient received in the emergency department for partial amputation of the penis occurred, whose mechanism of occurrence would be the fall of a sheet metal from the roof of his house, with reception on the proximal end of the shaft leading to a partial rupture of it—here, with total urethral section. He has no medical-surgical history. The physical examination finds a good general condition, a partial tearing of the ventral face of the penis associated with a total rupture of the urethra followed by a hemorrhage, the rest of the examination was without particularity. The emergency assessment carried out was without particularity. The treatment consisted initially of catheterizing the urethra by a urinary tube ch 20, then a urethral replacement, followed by a Peno plastie. The surgical suites were enamelled with parietal suppuration plus necrosis at J 14 post-operative. A more bidaily dressing debridement followed with a favorable evolution at 2 months. Subsequently, a penile graft was performed more urethrolastic, with removal of the flap on the inner side of the thigh, the surgical suites were favorable on the sexual plane gradual resumption of night erections.展开更多

Case presentation: This was a 62-year-old patient who had consulted for fistulized lesions of the scrotum associated with urinary disorders. Physical examination found budding lesions in the scrotum from which mucus was leaking. The diagnostic assessment carried out consisted of a biopsy sample of the scrotal lesions, a blood analysis and medical imaging, which led to the diagnosis. The mutilating nature of the surgery proposed to the patient after multidisciplinary consultation meeting and the expensive cost of chemotherapy drugs constituted the limits of the patient’s therapeutic management. Conclusion: Mucinous carcinoma of the scrotum is rare and primary lesion should always be sought. The presence of budding lesions of the scrotum with discharge of mucus should suggest the diagnosis.展开更多

In sickle cell patients, the hip is often subjected to aseptic necrosis. The authors report the case of the child NL, aged 5 years and 4 months in whom a fracture of the femoral neck classified Delbet 3 was found as well as his sickle cell status discovered and in whom treatment by surgical abstention was carried out with a favorable evolution. This association of factors of the femoral head necrosis or nonunion is unusual and confirms the osteogenetic potential of a child. However, monitoring is necessary because other anomalies may reveal themselves.展开更多

This disease is the third most frequent infection after leprosy and tuberculosis caused by a mycobacterium. The main objective of this study was to determine comparative effectiveness of conventional physiotherapy alone to its association with Kabat’s method in the management of post-Buruli ulcer functional limitations. This was an interventional randomized, comparative and prospective study. It took place at the district hospital of Akonolinga from the 12<sup>th</sup> June to 12<sup>th</sup> September 2016. The study was included, post-Buruli ulcer patients who matched the eligibility criteria, were under treatment in the physiotherapy unit, and who accepted to participate in our study. A questionnaire on the socio-demographic profile of participants, the ulcer localization, the limitation stage, previous medical history and functional mobility assessment scale was administered to the subjects before and after the intervention which lasted for twelve weeks. We had 2 groups: the case group received association of Kabat technique to conventional physiotherapy and the control group received conventional physiotherapy alone. We had 22 patients, 11 patients for the experimental group, 11 patients for the control group. The mean age was 26.18 years, 54.5% of female participation, 68.2% of leg localization, 59.1% patients with severe limitations of functional mobility, and preference for traditional medication 95.5%. After evaluation of efficiency, we concluded that there was no statistically significant difference between the two treatment protocols. Further studies with larger sample size are recommended.展开更多
