Objectives: To evaluate the surgical activities of the surgical unit of the Fana Health Centre. This was a prospective and descriptive study carried out in the surgical unit of the Fana Health Centre over a period of 12 months (01 July 2020 to 30 June 2021). Results: 331 surgical consultations with 242 surgical pathologies operated on, i.e. 73.11%. Men were more affected than women with a sex ratio of 2.9 and a predominance of young adults aged 16-30 years with 28.51%. The main disease groups encountered were the digestive disease class with a rate of 82.23% in first place, followed by diseases of the urinary system with 19.83%. The average length of hospital stay was 5 days. We observed that of the 242 patients operated on, 10 died (6 from septic shock and 4 from pulmonary embolism). Conclusion: This work has enabled us to highlight the surgical activities of the surgical unit at the Fana Health Centre, to evaluate its performance and shortcomings.
