Rhinological observations during a humanitarian mission in a rural sub-Saharan African setting.
Patients with rhinological symptoms and pathologies represent an important population. Their prevalence in developing areas without ENT care is not well documented. Due to various factors like migration, they may have an influence out of these territories. Our objective was to determine the prevalence and epidemiology of the main rhinological symptoms and pathologies during a humanitarian mission.. Six hundred and seventy nine patients presenting to our general medical consultations were examined. All of them had careful interrogation and a basic ENT check-up. Patient data and correlating photos were registered to be analyzed retrospectively.. The ethnic origins of the patients were different. Most of them were younger than 50 years old. The rhinological problems were amongst the most frequent reasons to consult, the prevalence was higher when secondary findings and complaints were also considered, representing altogether 44 (6.48%) cases.. A high prevalence of rhinological pathologies showing the importance of public health issues, screening and an important need of adapted treatments was found. Due to migration, climatic changes and humanitarian missions, their presentation and incidence may vary. Health care providers and rhinologists need a thorough knowledge of community acquired and tropical pathologies.
