Abstract

Digestive perforations are common in our region. Accidental digestive perforations occurring in traditional practitioners become recurrent and are a public health problem. Prolonged stays in the indigenate cause serious visceral lesions. The authors report four cases of perforations after ingestion of medicinal plants to the indigenate. The objective was to study the causal agent, the clinic, the paraclinical and the therapeutic strategy.
