[Epidemiological and anatomo-clinical features of extra-uterine pregnancies at the Dakar University Hospital Center].

It is the prospective study of 226 cases of operated ectopic pregnancies, in order to draw the epidemiological outline of such an affliction adn find out the possible etiologies. During this study, 107 swabs were anatomically exploited. An analysis of the results reveals the high frequency of disrupted ectopic pregnancies (over 90%). The ampullary localization exists in 73.45% of the cases. In the histological level, in 82.70 of the cases, the tubal pregnancy has been associated with a salpingitis or malformed lesions. The death rate is about 2.65%. In other respects, it appears that the limits of echography are actual, hence the importance of basic clinic, that mutilating surgery remains prevalent; histology also plays an unavoidable part in the diagnosis.
