Bakground: Anal and perianal sepsis is common anorectal disorders found in surgical practice. This study aims to report epidemiological aspects and outcomes of management of anal and perianal suppuration. Methods: This was a retrospective study from January 2011 to June 2016 at Niamey National Hospital. Patients operated on for anal and perianal suppuration of non-specific anorectal origin were included. Results: During the study period, we collected 141 cases of anal and perianal suppurations. The average age of our patients was 42±8.8 years. The sex ratio was 3.27 in favor of men. The origin of the patients was urban in 73.8% of the cases. The history of diabetes mellitus was found in 14.2% (n=20). Anal fistulas and anal abscesses (n=115) were simple in 46% (n=53) and complex in 54% (n=62). A fistulectomy with the placement of an elastic seton was performed for 41.13% of cases (n=58) and fistulotomy in 29.78%. The evolution of 6 months was marked by a recurrence in 10.63% (n = 15), the anal incontinence of gas at 9.21% (n=13). Deaths (n=4) were recorded in patients with Fournier’s gangrene. Uncomplicated therapeutic success was 80.13% (n=113). Conclusion: The surgical treatment of anal fistula (the main cause of anal and perianal suppuration) aims to eradicate the suppuration and to preserve the anal continence. The fistulotomy done in the context of the management of a simple fistula gives a better outcome. Incontinence-related complications and relapses must impose thoroughness and patience in the surgical treatment of complex fistulas.
