“…In the first case, it was an asymmetrical diaphyseal lesion and in the second case it was a symmetrical proximal metaphyseal lesion [2] [9], which were both of non-ballistic origin. The observed ballistic mechanism of this type of lesion, outside of an armed conflict, was exceptional in current practice [10] [11] [12]. The comminuted nature of the lesions reflected the bullet impact effect.…”

Although open leg fractures are very common in orthopedics and traumatology, bilateral open leg fractures are extremely rare and are usually associated with an increased risk of complications. We report a case of a simultaneous, asymmetrical, comminuted and bilateral open fracture of the tibia and fibula by a firearm that occurred during an escape attempt in a 29-year-old prisoner. The pre-operative radiological assessment found an open fracture of both legs of the ballistic type; multiple traumatic gunshot wounds with a narrow entry hole and a wide exit hole. Early surgical intervention of intravenous antibiotics, tetanus prophylaxis and open fracture irrigation and debridement was performed within the 6 hour rule. The treatment consisted of a posterior splint followed by trimming andosteosynthesis using a FESSA external fixator from the military health service. A second operation was not needed. Evolution was favorable with ambulation starting from the 45th day. Simultaneous and bilateral tibia-fibula fractures by a firearm are exceptional, therefore, the treatment was surgical with the pre-operative and post-operative protocols well managed.

“…Chaque groupe comporte deux femelles et un mâle. Les femelles sont examinées chaque matin afin de relever la présence de sperme ou de bouchon vaginal (Zougrou et al, 2019). Pour ce faire, un volume de 20 μL de NaCl 0,9 % a été prélevé à l'aide d'une micropipette et introduit dans le vagin de la ratte.…”

La consommation d’alcool par les mères gestantes ou allaitantes est un problème de santé publique qui a un impact chez la mère et le nourrisson. Les dommages causés chez le nouveau-né peuvent affecter la mémoire. L’objectif de cette étude est de comparer les effets de la prise d’alcool par des rattes durant les périodes de la gestation et/ou de la lactation sur les performances mnésiques des ratons. De ce fait, treize (13) lots de six (6) rattes nullipares sont accouplés avec des rats mâles à raison de deux femelles pour un mâle. Elles ont ensuite reçu quotidiennement de l’eau distillée (lot 0) ou différentes doses d’alcool (0,1 ; 0,3 ; 0,5 et 0,8 g/L de sang) durant les périodes de gestation (groupes 1-4), de lactation (groupes 5-8) et du début de la gestation jusqu’à la fin de la lactation (groupes 9-12). Les performances mnésiques des ratons issus de chaque lot sont évaluées grâce à un labyrinthe en T. Les résultats ont montré que l’alcool a favorisé une baisse significative des pourcentages d’alternance spontanée des ratons (P < 0,05). Cependant, les doses de 0,5 et 0,8 g/L de sang ont les plus fortes baisses avec 26 et 30% durant la gestation, et 10 et 8% pendant l’allaitement (P < 0,0001). En conclusion, l’alcool a des effets délétères plus prononcés sur la mémoire lorsqu’il est consommé durant la période de la gestation.Mots clés : Performances mnésiques, Labyrinthe en T, Alternance spontanée. English Title: Comparative effects of alcohol treatment of pregnant and lactating rats on the memory performance of their offspring Alcohol consumption by pregnant and lactating mothers is a public health problem that has an impact on mothers and newborn. Damage to the newborn can affect memory. The aim of this study is to compare the effects of alcohol consumption by rats during gestation and / or lactation on the memory performance of pups. Therefore, thirteen (13) lots of six (6) nulliparous rats are mated with male rats, two females for one male. They received daily distilled water (lot 0) or different doses of alcohol (0.1, 0.3, 0.5 and 0.8 g / L of blood) during gestation periods (groups 1 -4), lactation (groups 5-8) and from the start of gestation until the end of lactation (groups 9-12). The memory performance of each pup is evaluated using a T-maze. The results showed that the alcohol favored a significant drop in the percentages of spontaneous alternation of the pups (P <0.05). However, the doses of 0.5 and 0.8 g / L of blood have the largest decreases with 26 and 30% during gestation, and 10 and 8% during breastfeeding (P <0.0001). In conclusion, alcohol has more pronounced deleterious effects on memory when it is consumed during the gestation period.Keywords: Memory performance, T-maze, Spontaneous alternation
