title: [Aetiologics aspects of proctorrhagia at the black adult African: about 85 cases collect in 12 years in CHU-Campus of Lome].
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  To count the aetiology of proctorrhagia in Lomé.
  
  
  METHODS
  It is a retrospective study, over 12 years (1st January 1995-31 December 2006), realised from the reports of the coloscopy . It included the patients of the two sexes, old of more than 15 years, having presented a proctorrhagia explored by ano-rectoscopy and coloscopy.
  
  
  RESULTS
  The proctorrhagia represent 38.72% of the indications of the coloscopy. The patients from 24 to 45 years were reached (52.94%). A male prevalence was found (sex-ratio: 2.4). Among the aetiology found, the haemorrhoids more frequent (23.53%), were followed by the non specific colitis (16.47%), the ulcero- haemorrhage rectocolitis (15.29%), the colon diverticulosis (10.58%), the amoebic colitis (9.4%) and colorectal cancer (5.88%). The hemorroid were associated with a non specific colitis (1 case), a ulcero-hemorrhagic rectocolitis (1 case), an amoebic colitis (1 case) and diverticulose colic (1 case). In 12 cases (14.12%), no aetiology was found.
  
  
  CONCLUSIONS
  The haemorrhoids represent the most frequent aetiology of the proctorrhagia in Lomé; however their discovery in ano-rectoscopy should not exempt realisation of a complete coloscopy in the search of other causes.
