Abstract: Introduction: Postoperative complications are incidents or accidents that may occur after any surgical intervention. They lead to the aggravation of the previous situation by their morbidity and even their mortality. The objective of this work was to study the early postoperative evolution in the digestive surgery and Maternity departments at the CMC of Ratoma. Methodology: This was a descriptive prospective study over a period of (6) months from July 01, 2021 to December 31, 2021 carried out in the surgery and maternity departments of the Ratoma municipal center. Results: we operated on 403 patients in the surgery and maternity departments of the CMC in Ratoma, of which 50 cases, or 12%, developed early postoperative complications. The age group of 20-30 years was the most affected 22 cases or 44% with an average age of 29.5 years, extremes of 3 years and 85. The female sex was dominant 36 cases or 78% of cases with a sex ratio of 3.5. The majority of patients 26 or 56% were operated on in the maternity ward, where caesarean section was the most performed surgical procedure. Emergencies were represented in 26 cases or 56% of surgical interventions, infection of the surgical site was the most common postoperative complication in 40 cases or 80%. All our suppurated patients benefited from a pus sample for cytobacteriological examination and were treated according to the result of the antibiogram plus local care. 72% of our patients were followed on an outpatient basis. The evolution was favorable in 44 of our patients, i e. 88%, and unfavorable in 6 of our patients, i e. 12%, including ISO, evisceration and death each in 2 cases, i e. a common rate of 4%. Conclusion: Early postoperative complications were frequent at CMC Ratoma. Surgical site infections were the main early OCC presented by the patients. The management was medical and surgical. The evolution was favorable in most cases, however we recorded a few cases of death.
