[Infectious perforation of the terminal ileum. Apropos of 42 cases treated in the Islamic Republic of Mauritania].
The authors report 42 infectious perforations of terminal ileum operated at the National Hospital of Nouakchott (Islamic Republic of Mauritania) from 1985 to 1988. The main etiology is typhic (67 p.c.). The mortality is important (21 p.c.). The standardization of medico-surgical treatment and the use of cotromoxazole open the way to a better prognosis, but differed diagnosis and socio-economical conditions are some burdens, common to developing countries that have to be taken into consideration.
