Laparoscopic management of cervical and endometrial cancer in Africa: experience of the National Hospital Centre of Pikine

“…Thus, Uzan et al obtained an average operating time of 280 min, average blood loss of 150cc and a hospital stay of 5 days. 1 Our results are therefore comparable to those in the literature for blood loss, however, in a short study period, we were able to obtain a reduction in the operating time for this type of intervention.…”

“…A perfect illustration is mammography in breast cancer and cervico-vaginal smear in cervical cancer. 1,3,12,14 At the same time, the therapeutic methods have undergone the same advances in terms of both the technology used and the approaches (vaginal and laparoscopic). 3,15,16 The objective of these advances is to reduce the heavy morbidity associated with the management of cancer pathology, but also in considerable savings over the duration of the operation and hospital stay.…”

“…Similarly, Uzan et al in their series found no recurrence in patients with a tumor size of less than 2 cm. 1 Most comparative studies show that with laparoscopy there is less bleeding, longer hospital stay and longer operating time. Thus, Uzan et al obtained an average operating time of 280 min, average blood loss of 150cc and a hospital stay of 5 days.…”

“…The data are more contradictory with regard to complication rates, particularly urinary complications and urinary difficulties. 1 The first publications on laparoscopic treatment of endometrial cancer date from the early 1990. 2 Since then, several studies have suggested that the results obtained after laparoscopic treatment are equivalent to those obtained previously by laparotomy.…”

“…In the world and throughout developing countries, laparoscopy is increasingly taking on a role in the management of pelvic cancers, particularly cervical, endometrial and early ovarian cancers, as evidenced by the recommendations of learned societies. 1,2 In Africa, although the late stages are always more important, the advent of this approach represents a real opportunity for cancers diagnosed in the early stage. recovery of women undergoing surgery are all advantages that can be beneficial for countries with limited resources.…”
