摘要

<b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Introduction:</span></b><span style="font-family:""><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Upper gastrointestinal (GI) endoscopy is an examination that involves exploring the upper part of the digestive tract using an endoscope. Our study was aimed to evaluate the practice of Upper GI endoscopy at the mother-child hospital in Mali. </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Patients and Methods: </span></b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">This was a descriptive retrospective study on reports of Upper GI endoscopy results in the digestive endoscopy unit at the mother-child hospital in Bamako from January to December 2018.</span></span><span style="font-family:""> </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Results: </span></b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Endoscopy was performed in 465 patients including 231 males and 234 females. The sex ratio was 0.98. Patients were aged 46.69 years old on average with the extremes of 8 and 90 years old. Epigastralgia was the main referral in 50.5%. Endoscopy was normal in 24.7%. The main diagnostics were duodenogastric reflux in 32.5% and gastritis in 14.4%.</span><span style="font-family:""> </span><b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">Conclusion: </span></b><span style="font-family:Verdana;">The practice of Upper GI endoscopy at the mother-child hospital in Mali has allowed the exploration of the upper digestive tract to contribute to the diagnosis of esogastroduodenal lesions.
