Urinary Tract Lesions After Surgery for Gynecological Pelvic Cancers at the Conakry University Hospital

The aim of this study was to describe the urinary complications of surgery for gynecological pelvic cancers and their management at the university hospital in Conakry. Patients and methods: This was a descriptive multicenter study in the main surgical treatment services for gynecological pelvic cancer at the University Hospital of Conakry from 2007 to 2017. Results: Out of 22 cases collected, we found 10 (45.5%) cases during surgery and 12 cases of postoperative complications, including 8 (36.36%) early and 4 (18.18%) late. Direct suture on a ureteral probe in 3 cases and by reimplantation according to the Politano Leadbetter method in 2 cases. Laparotomy fistulorrhaphy was performed in 2 (9.1%) cases of VF. the Latzko technique for 6 (27.3%) other cases of FVV. The 2 cases of FUV were repaired by ureteral reimplantation according to the Lich-Gregoire method. In cases of stenosis, we proceeded to segmental resection followed by suturing on a ureteral probe. The morbidity consisted of: 2 cases of secondary VF, suppuration, 2 urinary incontinence, Operative mortality was 3 (13.6%) cases. Conclusion: The prevention of these lesions is the best way and requires a good knowledge of the anatomy and the surgical techniques. Early diagnosis of gynecologic pelvic cancer is necessary to minimize surgical risks.
