Gh.Popovici, respectively dr.C.Petrescu.In the modern era, the first\u0000laparoscopic cholecystectomy was performed in 4 dec. 1993 by A.E.N.In 1994 the first laparoscopic\u0000appendectomies, gynecological emergencies, exploration in traumatic abdominal contusion, followed by perforated\u0000ulcer (1995), intestinal occlusion (1997), were performed. In the specialized literature, out of the 42 emergency\u0000laparoscopy articles published in the journal “Chirurgia” (1994-2019), 16 (38,08%) belonged to the CEHB team, 11\u0000of AEN.

Trained in Iasi, Bucharest\u0000and also in Paris, as was the case with many of his remarkable compatriots, Anghel practiced general surgery but\u0000specialized in orthopedics, where his creative mind and experience enabled him to imagine and achieve new surgical\u0000techniques, including bone transplant, and prosthetic devices. He was a university professor at the Iași Faculty of\u0000Medicine, head of clinic at the ‟St. Spyridon” Hospital in the same city and member of important scientific societies.\u0000Dr. Anghel equally dealt with basic topics such as antisepsis and asepsis, wound treatment and war medicine that\u0000continued to be main concerns at the dawn of the XX-th century. A silent introspect with a poetic spirit, a cultivated\u0000and knowledgeable analyst of his time, Paul Anghel was interested in medical history, too. His scientific reviews always\u0000included retrospective glances into history. He pointed out some aspects of the history of the Faculty of Medicine of\u0000Iași and of the national medical tradition, and sketched the portraits of several Romanian medical and cultural\u0000personalities, proving his affective attachment to their memory. A skilled doctor, an innovative specialist, an empathetic\u0000teacher, and an emotional character, Professor Anghel was awarded medals and orders in recognition of his human\u0000qualities and civic involvement.
