    Abstract:
    INTRODUCTION: The study is transversal and descriptive. It take place in the odontology department in a public hospital in Dakar (Senegal), during 09 month (January-September 2005). The objective of this work was to determine the TP-INR value making possible to carry out an act of oral surgery without haemorrhagic risk. (INR = International Normalized Ratio). MATERIAL AND METHOD: It concerned 32 patients referred to the Odontology service by the Cardiology They presented a cardiovascular pathology having required an anticoagulant therapy, and also need an act of oral surgery. We exploited the following parameters: identification of the patient, oral state, types of oral surgery, types of cardiopathy, AVK posology, value of TP-INR, haemostatics means. RESULTS: 81.25% of the patients were women (26), with a sex ratio of 0.23. The mean age was 53ans, with 21 and 84 years like the extremes. 56.25% of our patients had undergone a single extraction, 25% had beneficed multiple extractions, and 18.75% had profited from a scaling-curetting. The average value of the TP-INR was 2.22 with extremes between 2 and 2.84. CONCLUSION: In favour of the haemostat means, no haemorrhagic complication post operational was revealed. It is allowed that the risk of thromboembolic accident by stopping the treatment is much more prejudicial than the hemorrhagic risk for the patient.
