Introduction: The aim of our study was to describe the aspects clinical and pathology of digestive polyps. Methods: This was a descriptive and analytical study with retrospective and prospective collection from January 2014 to September 2020, i.e. a duration of 72 months. Our study focused on all cases of non-cancerous digestive pathologies. The data were collected from registers, medical files and reports from the anatomy and pathological cytology department of the Point G University Hospital. All of this data was entered on an individual survey form. This sheet includes demographic data, qualitative and quantitative variables. Results: We conducted a study of 131 cases of digestive polyps. The frequency of digestive polyps was 3.65%. The mean age of our patients was 44.6 ± 21 years with extremes of 2 years and 79 years, with a male predominance and a sex ratio of 1.01. The biopsy was the type of sample most represented in 77.1%. The digestive polyps were located in stomach in 37.4%; the colon in 27.5% then the rectum 21.4%. The polyp sessile accounted for 65.6%. Histological examination revealed that adenomatous polyps were predominant in 77% of cases, followed by juvenile polyps in 9.2%, then hyperplastic polyps in 6.2%. Low grade dysplasia was found in adenomatous polyps in 61.53% and high grade found in 38.4%. Gastritis due to Helicobacter pylori (Hp) was found in 16% of cases. Conclusion: Digestive polyps are common in the general population. The prognosis is linked to the risk of neoplastic degeneration of adenomas.
Thanatophore dysplasia is a rare lethal bone dysplasia. It is caused bya genetic mutation. There are two subtypes which are very similar in their distinct radiological characteristics and genetic mutations. Early diagnosis is imperative and based on antenatal ultrasound data.We report a case of type I thanatophore dysplasia diagnosed at 32 weeks of amenorrhea and 14 days by a routine antenatal ultrasound in an 18-year-old woman, with no known family malformation history, at the commune II reference health center. of the district of Bamako. The objective of this work is to clarify the contribution of ultrasound in the diagnosis of thanatophore dysplasia.
Introduction: Retrograde urethrocystography (UCR) is a radiographic examination allowing to make visible the urethra and the bladder by direct retrograde opacification with a water-soluble iodinated contrast product. The aim of our work was to evaluate the epidemiological profile of the techniques of the UCR in the radiology department of the CHU point G. Methodology: This was a prospective and descriptive study concerning all elderly subjects addressed for UCR in the CHU HPG. A televised remote-controlled table was used with saline and contrast product (omnipaque). The parameters studied were socio-epidemiological factors. Results: We had collected 19 patients for UCR, i.e. 1.47% of cases. 100% of the UCR examinations performed were male. The age group ≥ 50 years was the most frequently encountered with 36.84% of cases. Workers were the most represented profession with 47.36% of cases followed by farmers (21.05% of cases) and the military (15.78% of cases). The majority of UCR examinations came from the urology department of the CHU point “G” with 2.47% of cases. Dysuria was frequently encountered among the examinations with 47.36% of cases followed by trauma in 21.05% of cases). Conclusion: A good mastery of UCR techniques by all imaging technicians would be necessary for better management.
