In the occasion of celebrating the opening of the hospital since 5 years ago, we are glad to offer this brochure that contains what has been achieved from development and approaches to the different departments. The brochure is supplied with statistics, figures, and pictures in addition to a brief summery about the hospital and its capabilities and the modern devices used.

The old Kasr El Einy hospital had been serving the Faculty of Medicine for many years since 1837 until it was pulled down and renewed in the early eighties. The work process has started in the new building project in the year 1984. It was equipped with all the most advanced medical and engineering devices in servicing both the medical and patient education. It is also aimed at being a unique center for medial researches over the Middle East region.

This huge project has been established through a contract signed by the Faulty of Cairo in the year 1984 with the French group Consertoum which consists from Sougia company a contractor for the engineering operations and Ebute de france the importing company for medical equipments, and Set Folkee company as engineering consultant.

The actual work in the project has started in the year 1986 and lasted for 9 years. A certificate for handing over the hospital was issued in November 1995 and the project costs has reached 800 million French francs in addition to 150 million Egyptian pounds.

Cairo University Management has supervised on the project in all its phases through assigning a delegate for the university as included in the contract and the formation of 3 committees for supervising and following up as follows: the engineering committee and the financial, administration, and medical committee. All members are recorded as the best Cairo university professors covering different fields.

In assertion to the concern of Cairo University for this huge project, and its high concern to let the new El Kasr El Einy Teaching Hospital unique and accessible without any obstacle, the university council has agreed last December 1994 on the independence of this project. It now becomes a unique unit away free from any routine obligations and it can offer medical and educational services with high degree of capabilities.
