In Sub-Saharan Africa, cancer is a scourge whose characteristics remain to be clarified, marked by very limited means, and especially by the context of practice in rural areas. We describe in this clinical case the particularity of the management in a rural context of a case of endometrial tumor in an 83-year-old patient at stage IB. OBSERVATION: This is Mrs. M.G., aged 83 4G 4P 4 children, postmenopausal for 30 years who consults for postmenopausal metrorrhagia evolving for 3 months. A diagnostic hysteroscopy was performed showing an ulcerated mass of the uterine cavity bleeding on contact, a biopsy was performed, the result of which was a low-grade endometrial stromal sarcoma. The abdominopelvic CT scan, which demonstrates thickening of the endometrium without damage to surrounding structures, classified as stage IB endometrial tumor. The patient underwent a total hysterectomy with bilateral pelvic dissection. The postoperative course was simple. The patient was discharged on the 7th postoperative day. The result of the histological report: well-differentiated and infiltrating endometroid carcinoma invading the isthmus and the cervix. Parameters and the 4 right and left lymph nodes are unharmed. The histo-prognostic stage was pT2N0Mx. CONCLUSION: The management of endometrial cancer is possible in the rural context in elderly patients. The prognosis is good if the diagnosis is made at an early stage. Surgery could still be offered even for subjects over 80 with less comorbidity.

Functional outcomes were simple with normal swallowing and satisfactory voice quality. One patient presented with a local recurrence that motivated total salvage laryngectomy. CONCLUSION: SPL with reconstruction is a good alternative in the management of limited laryngeal cancers. It gives good oncological outcomes while preserving laryngeal functions.

It covered all patients with stage IVA carcinoma of the cervix who received external radiotherapy at the Joliot Curie Institute of the Aristide Le Dantec Hospital from January 2018 to December 2019. RESULTS: We found 164 clinical records of patients, of which 24 patients had stage IVA, (14.3% of all cases). The average age of our patients was 51 years ± 12.13. Seventeen patients (70.9%) had an altered general condition on admission. The predominant histological type was squamous cell carcinoma found in 22 cases (91.6%). Anemia was found in 14 patients, (58.4%). Neo-adjuvant chemotherapy was performed in 21 of our patients (87.5%). Radiotherapy was exclusive in 20 patients (83.3%) and concomitant radio-chemotherapy was performed in 4 patients (16.7%).

There remains a relatively late diagnosis and a reserved prognosis. The main aim of this study is to study the causes, therapeutic and prognostic impacts of late diagnosis of breast cancer at Yalgado Ouédraogo University Hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a descriptive and prospective study from May 1st to October 31, 2013. The departments of surgery, gynecology and anatomy-pathology served as a framework for our study. All consenting breast cancer patients with a height greater than at least 5 cm (>T2), suspicious or metastatic satellite lymphadenopathy was included. The data analysis was done using Epi-info© software version 7.2.2.6, with the use of the Khi2, Fisher-exact and Student tests. RESULTS: We collected 70 patients with an average age of 46.1 years. In 95.7% of cases, our patients had consulted a traditional therapist or at least one medical center before being referred to the Yalgado Ouédraogo University Hospital. The consultation was less than 6 months in 52.9% of cases. Diagnostic time was statistically associated with source and monthly income with a p-value of 0.03 and 0.05 respectively. Stage III accounted for 62.8% of cases. Surgery was performed in 48.6% of cases, including 23.5% palliative surgery. Chemotherapy was neo-adjuvant in 22%, adjuvant in 48.8% and palliative in 14.6%. The average duration of follow-up was 2.7 months. We had found 20.6% of recidivism and 22% of deaths. CONCLUSION: Poverty, ignorance, socio-cultural constraints and lack of staff reduce patients' access to early diagnosis, which is responsible for expensive complex treatment and a poor prognosis. Equitable financial and geographic access will reduce diagnostic delays and mortality from breast cancer.

MATERIALS AND METHODS: This was a cross-sectional and descriptive study of colorectal cancers diagnosed in all anatomy and pathology laboratories in Burkina Faso from 1988 to 2018. Age, sex, nature of the specimens, histo-genetic and histological types were studied. Comparisons were possible using Student's t test and Fisher's Khi2 test. RESULTS: In 31 years, 802 colorectal cancers were diagnosed, representing a mean annual incidence of 25.9 cases ± 7.6. These cancers represented 30.9% of all digestive cancers and were therefore the 2nd most common digestive cancer. The mean age of the patients was 50 years ± 18.1. The sex-ratio was 1.2. In men, the mean age was 50 years ± 11.6 and in women 50 years ± 13. Endoscopic biopsy specimens were studied in 60.7% of cases. The cancers were located in the left colon in 44% of cases, in the right colon in 30.4% of cases and in the rectum in 25.6% of cases. Carcinomas constituted 93.5% of the histo-genetic types. Adenocarcinoma was the histological type in 77.9% of cases. CONCLUSION: The second most common digestive cancer in Burkina Faso, colorectal cancer occurs at a relatively young age. It is predominantly male. However, the average age of occurrence is identical in both sexes. Adenocarcinoma is the most frequent histological type. Access to mass screening would allow a better understanding of the frequencies.
