摘      要：Radiotherapy occupies an important place in the management of cancers of the pelvic-perineal organs, it is at the origin of the fact of the ionizing radiations of radiation proctitis which is most often revealed by hematochezia. Diagnosis is based on rectoscopy which highlights a telengiectatic proctitis aspect. The standard treatment is endoscopic and based on argon plasma electrocoagulation. We report two cases of radiation proctitis occurring a few months after radiotherapy. Case number 1: A 76-year-old hypertensive patient known to have a history of cancer of the cervix treated with radiochemotherapy, she was received in an array of hematochezia of medium abundance;total colonoscopy found an aspect of telengiectatic proctitis making retain radiation proctitis. She had benefited from medical treatment, however, after a two-month follow-up, there was a recurrence of rectal bleeding despite medical treatment, due to the unavailability of endoscopic treatment based on argon plasma, surgical treatment of a type of protectomy had been carried out on postoperative follow-up was marked by a regression of hemorrhage with the occurrence of a. Case number 2: An 87-year-old patient, hypertensive, with a history of prostate adenocarcinoma 3 years ago treated with brachytherapy and hormone therapy;he was hospitalized with hematochesia. Rectosigmoidoscopy found an aspect of telengiectatic proctitis. The diagnosis of radiation proctitis had been retained and the patient had received medical treatment. The short-term evolution was marked by an amendment of the hematochezia with a long-term recurrence requiring endoscopic destruction via the diathermic loop of the telengiectatic lesions with good evolution without relapse after the procedure. Conclusion: Radiation proctitis is a major side effect of pelvic radiotherapy. Management is very difficult in our regions due to the unavailability of endoscopic means, in particular argon plasma.
