Abstract

As part of the South-South cooperation, King Mohammed VI gave his high instructions for the deployment of a multi-specialty field hospital in Juba with a capacity of 30 beds expandable to 60, with a staff of 20 specialist doctors and 18 nurses. Visceral surgery was provided by a single general surgeon. We wanted to take stock of more than 3 months of visceral surgery activity. Thus, the purpose of this study was to describe the epidemiological aspects, diagnosis of visceral affections and report the results of the management.
