To assess the risk of prevalent high-grade cervical squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs) or invasive cancer (ICC) associated with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) type 1, HIV-2, and papillomavirus (HPV) infections, HIV load, CD4 cell count, we studied 4119 women attending an outpatient clinic in Senegal. infection was increased rates high-risk HPVs. Among infected HPVs, those HIV-1 (odds ratio [OR], 2.2; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.0–4.8), HIV-2 (OR, 6.0; CI, 2.1–17.1), dual 8.0;...
Background: Women infected with human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1) and -2 may be at higher risk of developing cervical cancer than uninfected women. We assessed the relationships among papillomavirus (HPV) types persistence, HIV-1 and/or HIV-2 infection, development high-grade squamous intraepithelial lesions (HSILs) in a prospective study. Methods: studied 627 women without infection high-risk HPV Senegal, West Africa, who were every 4 months for HSIL DNA over mean follow-up 2.2...

Introduction: Kaposi sarcoma (KS), a malignancy originating from endothelial cells and linked to human herpesvirus 8 (HHV-8), disproportionately affects individuals with immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Despite decreased incidence in high-income countries due antiretroviral therapy, KS remains significant concern sub-Saharan Africa. This article presents case study of an HIV-positive patient treated exclusively radiation therapy provides comprehensive literature review on management. Case...
In Senegal, few studies have been devoted to non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma. We conducted a retrospective descriptive study of 73 cases treated at the Institut J. Curie Hospital Aristide Le Dantec for lymphomas from 2001 2007. The main objective was determine clinical and therapeutic aspects. Our population consisted 39 men 34 women (sex ratio: 1.14). average age 36 years with extremes 5 76 years. most common locations were cervical (30.6%) oropharynx (8.21%). Multiple found in 30.6% cases. Only...
We review relevant publications on ductal carcinoma in situ of the breast past three years and we discuss pattern outcome lightened by new molecular approach techniques radiotherapy.
Abstract Background: Equitable access to women’s health services, including cancer prevention programs, is lacking in many countries. Sénégal ranks 17 th the world age-standardized incidence rate of cervical cancer. The Kédougou region located southeastern corner and has structural barriers preventive care, economic disadvantage, a low literacy rate, shortage healthcare workers. goal this study was investigate facilitators screening uptake region.

INTRODUCTION : La prise en charge des formes localement avancées carcinomes du col utérin repose essentiellement sur la radiothérapie. L’irradiation va combiner radiothérapie externe et curiethérapie. Pour les patientes ne pouvant pas bénéficier de curiethérapie, le boost est apporté uniquement par externe. L’objectif cette étude d’évaluer technique traitement intégré simultané dans cancers avancés évaluant dosimétrie, toxicité réponse précoce traitement. MATERIELS ET METHODES Ce travail une...
