There is a group of tumors share the same nuclear size <3 red blood cells and can be differentiated only by immunostaining. All thoracic small cells tumors diagnosed between 1998-2001 during 4 years, at AL ASSAD UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL – DAMASCUS UNIVERSITY. There were 103 cases (66 cases of small cell carcinoma, 30 malignant lymphoma, and 7 cases of PNET ). We performed the immunostaining in 31 cases of small cell carcinoma ,all of them were malignant lymphomas and the 7 cases of PNET*. PNET cannot be diagnosed without immunostaining. We must demand the immunostaining if there is a doubt ( clinical or pathological) about the real nature of a small cell tumor.

Primary cardiac tumors are considered rarely common tumors. They are classified into two kinds of tumors: (1) Benign cardiac tumors frequently located in the left cardiac chambers, mostly common is the Myxoma , which is treated by complete good ex cising surgery including excision of the tumor base. (2) Malignant primary tumors, which prefer the right cardiac chambers, mostly common are Angiosarcoma and Mesothelioma, whose primary treatment is nearly complete excision surgery with the help of artificial heart and lung, followed by chemotherapy and radiotherapy, which seldom prolong the life of the patient for about three years.
This is the case of male aged 57 years old who had a squamous cell carcinoma,clear cell type, of iliaclocation. He previously had clear cell SCC in the laryux.
A retrospective study of 55 cases (mean age 55, range 82 ـ 35 years) of Gastrointestinal stromal tumors cancer admitted at AL Assad University Hospital , Lattakia , Syria. from 1\1\2002 to 1\1\2014 for studying its :locations ,risk factors and surgic al management. Stomach was the most common site for GISTs in 52.27% , small intestinal in 30.90%, rectum in 9.09% and colon in 7.27%. The most common clinical signs and symptoms were: gastrointestinal bleeding 61.8% ,abdominal pain 21.81%.the histologic prognosis was high and moderate in 72.72% of patients. Total gastrictomy was performed for one patient ,subtotal gastrictomy for 16 patients and a wedge in 11 cases. In 6 patients a segementectomy of small intestinal were performed. and in one patient a resection of the upper rectum performed.
A number of patients who had undergone to craniotomies for tumor resection, re- intubated in ICU as urgent procedure. This may result in poor prognosis, overloading the staff, and high cost. The goal is looking for clinical, surgical, and laborato ry risk factors helping in early detection of cases which require keep ETT in place and maintaining of ventilation.
Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) is the commonest cancer in fair-skinned adults, and it can result in extensive morbidity through local recurrence and destruction more than 750000 new cases are diagnosed in the world annually, and the incidence is risin g. To our knowledge, a distinct information about BCC in Syrian population is scarce. This study was performed in dermatology hospital of the university of Damascus between 1-1-1997 and 1-1-1999. A total of 255 cases of histologically-confirmed BCC 's were studied. Our results showed the most significant characteristics of BCC in Syria: 67.1% of patients were men, while 32.9% were women. The median age was 58.9. the part most frequently involved was the central face (45.5%), while the trunk and extremities were involved in (7%). Multiple BCC was found in 7.7%. The most common histologic types of BCC were: circumscribed solid (45.4%), adenoid (13.3%), and invasive solid (12.5%).
