This study aims to identify the epidemiological profile of tuberculosis in Tartous governorate, due to the increase in the number of infections in the governorate during the period (2012-2016). The recorded data on TB cases at the Department of Communicable Diseases were adopted for the study using statistical analysis to assess the situation of tuberculosis, taking into account the different variables (age – gender - type of tuberculosis - places of infection in the center of the province and its country sides - treatment protocols). The study included 741 cases, more than half of the cases (411 cases, 55.5%) were pulmonary tuberculosis, both open and closed. The results showed an increase in the incidence of tuberculosis due to the absence of awareness campaigns and the migration of the population during the crisis to the province of Tartous, the decline in the level of income and low immunization level as a result of increasing cases of malnutrition. Thus, further studies are recommended in order to detect the spread of lymphatic, bronchial and polypathy
