Twist is the rarest complication of Meckel's diverticulum (DM). We did not find a case published in African literature. We report a case of twisted "giant" diverticulum occurred in a 15-year-old boy who had consulted for abdominal pain. Operated in emergency, the diagnosis was intraoperative. The diverticulum was 14 cm long and 5 cm in diameter. It was twisted at its base, totally necrotic and perforated at the top. We performed a resection carrying the diverticulum followed by a terminoterminal ileal ileal anastomosis. The postoperative course was simple., (Le comitée de rédaction se réserve le droit de revoyer aux auteurs avant toute soumission à l'avis des lecteurs les manuscrits qui ne seraient pas conformes à ces modalités de présentation.

Neonatal gastric perforation (PGNN) is a rare and serious pathology when management is not early. We did not find a case published in African literature. . We report 2 cases of PGNN registered in pediatric surgery of C.H.U Gabriel TOURE. The clinical pictures were that of a neonatal occlusion. X-rays of the abdomen without preparation revealed pneumoperitoneum in both cases. Congenital origin was retained for both cases. Surgical treatment consisted of excision-suture of the perforation margins. The operative sequences were simple in both cases., (Le comitée de rédaction se réserve le droit de revoyer aux auteurs avant toute soumission à l'avis des lecteurs les manuscrits qui ne seraient pas conformes à ces modalités de présentation.

The closure anomalies of the peritoneal-vaginal canal include several clinical entities, which are at the origin of various symptomatology., Objective: To study the anatomo-clinical and therapeutic aspects of pathologies of the peritoneal-vaginal canal., Materials and Method: This was a prospective study from January 1 st to December 31 st , 2015 carried out in the pediatric surgery department of University Hospital Gabriel Touré. It covered all children aged 0-15 years old with a pathology of the peritoneal-vaginal canal operating in the department during the study period. This study did not include cases that were not operated on or not seen during the study period., Results: During the study period, 2,699 children were treated in pediatric surgery, of which 150 cases of pathology of the peritoneal-vaginal canal had a hospital frequency of 5.5%. The average age was 3.25 ± 9.63 years. The sex ratio was 14. The reason for consultation was intermittent or permanent inguinal or inguino-scrotal swelling in all children. The pathology was discovered by the parents during the pushing efforts in 46.7%. Inguino-scrotal swelling was found on physical examination in 40% of cases. The right side was reached in 60% of the cases. Hernia accounted for 80.6% of these pathologies. We recorded 31 cases of strangulation and 11 cases of craze. Immediate operative follow-up was simple in 92% of patients. This rate was 96% after 6 months., Conclusion: Pathologies of the peritoneal-vaginal canal are very common in pediatric surgical practice. The first place of these pathologies is occupied by hernia. They preferentially affect male infants., (Le comitée de rédaction se réserve le droit de revoyer aux auteurs avant toute soumission à l'avis des lecteurs les manuscrits qui ne seraient pas conformes à ces modalités de présentation.
