Appendectomy is one most common procedure in emergency cases . laparoscopic surgery has many features and development which lead courageously to appendectomy by laparoscopic procedure. This study was conducted on 60 patients who underwent laparosc opic appendectomy at Al-Assad university hospital between 2014-2016. The average age of patients was 38 years – the proportion of meals was 58,3 % and females was 61,4 %. The mean surgical operation time was 105 minutes . Normal appendectomy proportion was 13,3 % . Acute appendectomy without perforation was 75 % . The proportion for gangrenous appendectomy with perforation was 11,6 % , The proportion for conversions to open surgery was 16,6 % . Post operation complications were as follows : wound infection : 6,66 % - intra abdominal abscess :5 % - Bowel obstruction :1,66 % . Analysis of the results revealed that the rates are within the internationally accepted rates . We concluded that this surgery is safe and has many features and a little complications . We recommend applying this surgery in our hospitals .
The study was carried out in Al-Assad University Hospital in Lattakia in surgery department for a period of two years (2014 – 2016). There were 52 patients with 104 undescended testises , their ages were between (6 months -5 years) .The objects of this study were as following: 1- study the result of treatment of B-HCG for bilateral cryptorchidism. 2- Study the optimal age for the application of hormonal treatment with B HCG . Ultrasound (US) was done to 39 patients (75%) to find the abnormalities of urinary tract, and the results were negative. The mean age was 2,5 . There were 29 patients (55.77 %) who were less than 2 years of age. Patients were followed for six months . There was success after six months of treatment 34,61 % of the total sample for bilateral cryptorchidism , 13,64 % of the total sample for one side . if treatment was early , the success rate would be better . the preferred age for treatment of B Hcg is less than 2 years of age .
laparoscopic cholecystectomy has many features that make it preferable to open surgery with a low incidence of complications. The study was conducted on 877 patients who underwent laparoscopic cholecystectomy at Al-Assad and Tishreen hospitals in the period 2010-2017 The surgical method used and the reasons for conversion to open surgery were studied in addition to the complications occurring during or after the surgery in terms of occurrence rate and method of management of complications and the results of this management. The average age of patients was 46 years, the proportion of females was 64.5%, the mean surgical time was 45 minutes. The ratio of conversion to open surgery was 2.05% and the most common cause was severe inflammation, "unclear calot`s triangle" and suspicion of malignancy. Partial laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in 1.36% of cases and peroperative complications occurred in 0.34% of cases and postoperative complications in 2.16% of cases. Analysis of the results revealed that the rates of conversion for open surgery and the incidence of complications are within the internationally accepted rates and that the results of management of complications were satisfactory and consistent with the methods used globally to manage complications. We concluded that this surgery is safe and its complications are rare. We recommend applying it in our hospitals . We have suggested some recommendations that can reduce the complications of this surgery.

We decided to carry out this study to highlight the risk factors, clinical presentations and prognosis for AFS in the neonatal care department at Al-Assad University Hospital in Lattakia, and thus reaching conclusions and recommendations that avoid high incidence rates of this lifethreatening condition. The aim of the study was to shed light on the clinical and laboratory characteristics of the AFS when developing the diagnosis and to study its potential risk factors for its occurrence of neonates in the department of neonatal care. The gold standard for diagnosing AFS in our study was the positive results of blood culture by isolating fungal yeasts from all neonates of the study sample.
