“…The frequency of urticaria was 1.91% in our study over a period of 60 months. This frequency is close of Teclessou study result which was 1.1% over a period of 18 months in Lomé in 2019 [8]. The low prevalence of urticaria could be explained by the hospital-based nature of the study, as patients suffering from urticaria are also seen by general practitioners or nurses in first-level health facilities in Burkina Faso.…”

The objective of this study was to evaluate the clinical and therapeutic socio-demographic profile and quality of live of patients followed for urticaria in the dermatology-venereology department of the Yalgado Ouédraogo University Hospital in Ouagadougou.

“…Notre résultat est similaire à celui de la Tunisie et de l'Algérie où les plaques et les angio-oedèmes coexistent dans respectivement 40% et 50% des cas [12]. Aussi, dans une étude réalisée dans plusieurs pays au Magrheb, l'angio-oedème était associé à l'urticaire dans 36% des cas [18]. L'association élevée de l'angio-oedème à l'urticaire chronique devrait faire craindre, la survenue de signe de gravité notamment des troubles respiratoires en cas d'atteinte de l'extrémité céphalique.…”

“…Tous nos patients ont été traités avec les antihistaminiques antisH1 ; principalement de deuxième génération (86%). Les antihistaminiques sont reconnus efficace dans la prise en charge de l'urticaire chronique dans 45 à 80% des cas selon les différentes études [18][19][20]. De plus, les antihistaminiques de deuxième génération constituent le traitement de première intention et sont cités dans les recommandations internationales [15,21].…”

The aim of this study was to document the epidemiological, clinical, therapeutic and progressive profile of chronic urticaria in dermatology in Lomé (Togo). Patients and Method: We carried out a prospective study in the three public dermatology departments of Lomé from November 2017 to April 2019. All patients with chronic urticaria diagnostic were included. Results: In total, 129 (1.1%) of the 11,355 patients seen during the study period had chronic urticaria. The mean age of the patients was 34.5 ± 13 years and the sex ratio (M / F) was 0.49. A history of personal (65.1%) or familial (47.6%) atopy was found. Typical fleeting edematous papular lesions were present in 100% of patients and angioedema in 52 (40.3%) patients. Treatment was based on antihistamines antis H1 (100% of patients); mainly second generation (86% of patients). Remission was noted in 69.9% of patients. Conclusion: Chronic urticaria is a rare pathology in dermatological consultation in Lomé. The superficial forms are the most observed.
