Surgical site infections are frequently encountered in developing countries. In the world, cesarean section is one of the most performed surgical procedures for women. The objective of this study was to describe the socio-demographic, clinical, therapeutic and prognostic aspects of post-cesarean suppurations in the gynecology-obstetrics department of the Communal Medical Center of Ratoma. This was a descriptive study carried out in the gynecology-obstetrics department of the Communal Medical Center of Ratoma (maternity level II) in Guinea extended over six months from April 1 to September 30, 2020. The patients who presented with post suppuration - cesarean section and accepted to participate in the study were included. The variables were socio-demographic, clinical, therapeutic and prognostic. Forty-eight cases of suppurations were recorded out of 1090 cesarean sections, i.e. a frequency of 4.4%. The 31 to 36 age group was the most represented (41.67%). The average age was 23.29±4.76 years with extremes of 16 and 36 years. These were mainly housewives (41.66%), married women (95.84%) and residents mostly in the municipality of Ratoma (75.01%). The time to rupture of the membranes was less than 12 hours in 62.50% of cases and cesarean section was performed urgently in 83.33% of cases and the most frequent indication was foeto-pelvic disproportion in 33.34% of cases. The mean duration of the operation was 37.78±9.10 minutes with extremes of 20 and 75 minutes in the majority of cases. Suppuration was diagnosed at week 1 (60%) and the identified germ was staphylococcus aureus in 61, 53% of cases. No revision surgery had been performed and no maternal deaths were recorded. Post-cesarean parietal suppuration remains frequent; thus a better identification of the factors favoring this affection could make it possible to significantly reduce their incidence and consequently improve the maternal prognosis.
