Background: Diseases of gastrointestinal tract are a major cause of morbidity and mortality. Objective: This study was carried out to determine the spectrum of histopathological lesions of upper gastrointestinal tract. Methodology: This retrospective study was conducted in the Department of Pathology at North East Medical College, Sylhet, Bangladesh during a 36 months period from January 2013 to December 2015. Endoscopies were performed using Olympus 150, forward viewing upper GI endoscope. The biopsy specimens received were fixed in 10.0% formalin and routinely processed in Haematoxyline & Eosin stain. Results: The present study included 135 endoscopic biopsies. The mean age with SD of the study population was 53.20±16.09 years. Among 53 cases of esophageal biopsies 8(15.08%) cases showed non-neoplastic lesions and 45(84.92%) cases were neoplastic of which 39(73.6%) cases and 6(11.32%) cases were squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma respectively. Among 6 cases of gastro esophageal junction biopsies 3(50%) cases showed non-neoplastic lesions and 3(50%) were neoplastic, of which 2(33.33%) were adenocarcinoma and 1(16.67%) were squamous cell carcinoma. Among 61 cases of stomach biopsies 34(55.74%) showed non-neoplastic lesions and 27(44.26%) were neoplastic, of which 1(1.64%) case was adenoma and 25(40.98%) were adenocarcinoma. Among 15 cases of duodenal biopsies 13(86.67%) cases showed non-neoplastic lesions and 2(13.33%) were neoplastic one of which was adenocarcinoma (6.67%). Among 135 cases endoscopist reported 82(60.74%) cases as neoplastic and 53(39.26%) as non-neoplastic, whereas histopathology revealed 77(57.03%) cases neoplastic and 58(42.97%) cases non-neoplastic. Conclusion: Common site of upper GIT endoscopic biopsy is stomach which are mostly neoplastic lesion; however, most common malignancy is squamous cell carcinoma of the oesophagus.

The authors describe a squamous cell carcinoma arising from the ear canal of a Long-eared Hedgehog ( Hemiechinus auritus ). No metastasis could be identified elsewhere in the animal. Due to the irritation caused by the tumorous proliferation the animal constantly scratched the affected area, which led to secondary bacterial infection of the middle ear accompanied by the stagnation of an increased volume of local secretions. Using routine haematoxylin and eosin and immunohistochemical staining techniques, the tumour was identified as a squamous cell carcinoma. This work constitutes the first description of such a tumour in a Long-eared Hedgehog.

Background: Wide range of vulval lesions have been described with similar modes of presentation. Benign and inflammatory lesions form the major chunk. Squamous cell carcinoma is the most reported malignant entity. Aim was to review the vulval lesions received in our departmentMethods: We studied the data from the archives of the Department of Pathology for a period of 5 years from January 2014 to December 2018 for vulval biopsies and specimens sent for histopathological examination. The final diagnoses were divided into non-neoplastic, neoplastic and non- specific.Results: Age of women ranged from 22 to 86 years (mean 54.3±3.6) with the maximum number of patients between 50 to 60 years of age. Most common form of clinical presentation was an itchy white elevated lesion on the vulva (72 cases, 62.6%). The most common site for the lesions was labia minora (90 cases, 78.2%). Non neoplastic lesions were seen in 53 cases and neoplastic lesions were seen in 52 cases. There were 28 (53.8%) benign lesions while 24 cases (46.1%) were malignant. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most frequently diagnosed form accounting for 20 cases (83.3%). Rare tumours like Malignant melanoma, Merkel cell carcinoma and Neuroendocrine carcinoma formed 16.6% (n=4). Seven cases were premalignant. Two cases had non-specific histologic diagnosis showing mild chronic inflammation.Conclusions: Previous studies have reported that non-neoplastic lesions form around 70% of cases. However, in our study we found that the non-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions form equal number of cases (46%) which may be attributed to increased awareness or geographical variation.
