Abstract
Purpose: Our purpose was to describe the epidemiological and therapeutic aspects of the vaginal hydroceles. Methodology: It was a forward-looking and descriptive study of Mars 2014 in July, 2017, which realized in the service of general surgery of the Reference Health Center of Kati (Mali). All the patients operated in the service for hydrocele were included. Other causes of big stock exchange and hydroceles operated outside our service were not including. Results: We operated 92 hydroceles or 5.9% of the surgical activities of the service. The average age was of 34.5 years with extremes of 2 years and 82 years. The most frequent signs of hydrocele were the big painless stock exchange (100%); a transillumination positive (90%) and the effusion of the vaginal in the ultrasound (100%). The cure of hydrocele was realized according to the techniques of Bergmann (94.6%) and of Lord (5.4%). The mortality was nil and the morbidity was 3.3% (2 operating infections of the site and 1 bruise). Conclusion: The hydrocele is a frequent pathology in Africa. The therapeutic strategies are multiple and varied. However, we prefer the Bergmann technique, which is easy, fast and has few complications.
