Flow cytometry became unavoidable step in the diagnosis of Acute Leukemia . However, accurate diagnosis is conditioned by using proper markers. Objective: to evaluate the quality of performance of four colors protocol, we used for immunophenotyping of acute leukemia in children.

Our study aimed to evaluating significance of survivin as a prognostic marker of relapse in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The study included 46 child (30 males, 16 females): 24 child with ALL at 35 day from BFM 95 Protocol and 22 rel apse child with ALL.
The objective of this research is to insist on the most important symptoms and signs of appendicitis and diagnosis in a timely manner to avoid complications and deaths. The aim of the study was to establish diagnostic criteria for acute appendiciti s in children in the light of the data obtained from the study of a large number of patients with appendicitis and to determine the surgical indication to reduce complications and negative abdominal opening and to include the studied criteria in a spec ial scale in our patients to evaluate children with acute appendicitis depending On this scale. The study included 104 children who visited the Pediatric emergency department at Al-Assad University and University Hospital and Tishreen university Hospital with a complaint of abdominal pain between 2014 and 2016. The number of male patients was 76 patients and 28 females, abdominal pain was present in all patients, The following criteria were studied (abdominal pain, abdominal tenderness, rebound tenderness, ultra sound, leukocytosis, shift to left, fever,crp). These criteria were studied to diagnose acute appendicitis and to put them in a special scale for use in diagnosis or denial acute appendicitis. In comparison with international standards, we observed that the scale studied in our study is more objective and eliminates the subjective factor in the diagnosis of appendicitis.
Chemotherapy causes neutropenia and increase susceptibility to infections. Morbidity and mortality due to infections remain serious problem in children with cancer. Decreased serum levels of Mannose-binding lectin ( MBL) may represent a risk factor f or infections in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia receiving chemotherapy. The aim of this study was to determine whether low MBL levels is associated with increased risk of infections in Syrian children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. The study has been done at Children University Hospital in Damascus between 2013-2014. This study included 37 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) who were candidates for chemotherapy, and the infections were identified depending on patients files. The levels of Mannose-Binding Lectin (MBL) was determined by Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA). The result was that MBL serum levels are higher in patients who did not develop infections compared to patients who developed infections, and all patients with low MBL levels developed infections in contrast to patients with normal MBL serum levels.
In contrast to adaptive immunity and to certain components of innate immunity, only little is known on the influence of the complement system on cancer suppression and promotion . The lectin pathway of complement activation is an important part of in nate immunity. It is mainly involved in opsonisation and lysis of pathogens and in recruitment of inflammatory cells. Our study aimed to assess the relationship between MASP-2 serum levels before and after chemotherapy in Syrian children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, aiming to find a relation, which serve in early forecast of patients response to chemotherapy, where the study has been done at Children University Hospital in damascus between 2013-2014. This study included 37 children diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The levels of Mannose-Binding Lectin-associated Serine Protease-2 (MASP-2) were determined by Enzyme Linked Immuno Sorbent Assay (ELISA). The result was that serum levels of MASP-2 was strongly reduced after chemotherapy in children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and a strong correlation between serum marker levels before and after chemotherapy was found.
Serglycin is an intracellular proteoglycan in hematopoietic cells. It has been studied in normal and tumor hematopoietic cell, so it was suggested to have an important role in immunity and cancers as leukemia. The challenge to make a diagnosis for acute leukemia and to differentiate between myeloid or lymphoblastic leukemia, is the reason we go to assay concentration of serglyc in normal people and patient with acute myeloid leukemia and acute lymphoblastic leukemia from children and adult at hematology department in the main hospitals in Damascus ( Pediatric’shopital, Almouasat and Al asaad hospital) before beginning any kind of treatment and studying the relation with white blood cells count. We found clear difference between the concentration in patient with acute leukemia and normal people. There was a high level of this marker in paint with AML in contrast with ALL patients. We found a relation between concentration of serglycin and the count of white blood cells.
