“…The frequency of external hemorrhoidal thrombosis in recent births was 14.6%. This result is comparable to those of Sehonou et al [7] in Benin who found 14.8%. On the other hand, Abramovitz et al [8] in France found a higher frequency respectively of 20%.…”

Introduction: External hemorrhoidal thrombosis is a clinical is the most common postpartum proctologic accident. The aim of this work was to study hemorrhoidal thrombosis in recent mothers, in order to help improve its management. Patients and Methods: This was a descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study that was carried out at Saint Camille Hospital in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso. Data collection was prospective and took place over a period of three months from September 1 to November 30, 2019. The study population consisted of recent births. The interview with the patients and their physical examination enabled the collection of data. Results: During the study period, 384 women were examined and 56 (14.6%) of whom presented with external hemorrhoidal thrombosis. The average age of patients who presented with external hemorrhoidal thrombosis was 29 years ± 5.2. The external hemorrhoidal thrombosis appeared in the form of a painful swelling at the level of the anal margin. In multivariate analysis, dyschezia and personal history of hemorrhoidal disease were risk factors for external hemorrhoidal thrombosis in the postpartum period ; ]. Consumption of fruit and foods rich in dietary fiber were protective factors against the occurrence of this risk (OR = 0.02 [0.002 -0.3]). Conclusion: External hemorrhoidal thrombosis remains a complication to be taken into account during the monitoring of postpartum women.

“…The factors associated with co-infection in this study were history of blood transfusion, lack of immunization against hepatitis B, and duration of ART lower than five years. Other authors have also identified blood transfusion as associated with co-infection in Benin and Nigeria [22,23]. We can assume with the results in Table 5 that HIV infected children with history of blood transfusion are running 2.64 times risk of hepatitis.…”

Background: Viral hepatitis B and C share the same transmissions route with HIV. This fact could explain the relative high prevalence of HIV and Hepatitis B and C virus co-infection. Objective:The purpose of this study is to determine HIV and Hepatitis B and C virus co-infection frequency among HIV infected children's cohort at Cotonou National Teaching Hospital and identify predicting factors of this coinfection. Materials and methods:Authors performed a descriptive, cross-sectionnal and analytic study covering the periood of 1st of May to 31st of August at the Cotonou National Teaching Hospital which is a tertiary hospital dedicated to HIV infected children follow up and management. Recruitment was exhaustive and sociodemographic, clinical and biological data (Ag HBs, ac HBc) were registered.Results: 31 cases of co-infection were registered among 234 HIV infected children (13.2%). HIV/VHB coinfection was encountered in 12.8% of cases and HIV/VHC co-infection in 0.4%. Through univariate analysis history of blood transfusion was an associated factor and through multivariate analysis, predicting factors of that co-infection were length of HAART (p=0.0375), children's hepatitis B immunization status (p=0.0461) and history of blood transfusion (p=0.0162). Conclusion:This work will contributes to reinforce regular screening of hepatitis B and C co-infection among HIV infected children before HAART initiation and also serve as tool for advocacy for hepatitis B immunization at birth in our country.
