Background: Meningiomas are neoplasms arising from the arachnoidal cap cells in the meningeal coverings of the spinal cord and brain. These are the most common benign intracranial tumours and account for about 13-26% of all primary brain neoplasms. These are generally benign neoplasms of adults most often seen in middle age, but about 10% are atypical or malignant. These neoplasms are graded by WHO as Grade I , II and III . Benign meningiomas can be cured by surgical resection where as higher grade meningiomas require radiotherapy after surgical resection as these higher grade meningiomas have greater recurrence and aggressive behavior. Aims and Objectives: To study the variants and histopathological spectrum of meningioma and prognosis of variants. Material & Methods: The present study is a prospective study conducted in the department of Pathology, Siddhartha medical college from June 2019-May 2020. During this study, 16 cases of meningiomas were diagnosed and reviewed. Result:In our study of 16 cases females were 62.5%. The most common age group is 41-60 yrs (68.75%). Most common variant was noted to be transitional meningioma followed by meningothelial meningioma. Out of the 16 cases, grade I were 81.25%. Conclusion: Meningiomas account for 28-30% of primary central nervous system tumors and unveil a heterogeneous histopathology. The histological appearance of meningioma determines the grading for the management of the various subtypes and also associated with patient's prognosis. Hence a continuous revision of histopathological classication systems is required to improve the diagnostic accuracy. Benign meningiomas are the most common type. From our study, we conclude that transitional meningioma is the most common benign variant.

Background: Cervical cancer in India ranks as the 2nd most frequent cancer among women and the 2nd most frequent cancer among women between 15 and 44 years of age. Invasive carcinoma of cervix is preventable as it is associated with pre-invasive stage which occurs 10-15 years prior to it, thus permitting early detection by screening and leading to effective treatment and thereby reducing mortality rate with greater impact on lives saved. Objectives were to correlate the findings of Pap smear with colposcopy in evaluation of all symptomatic women; and to assess the utility of colposcopy in detecting the premalignant and malignant lesions of cervix.Methods: This was a prospective observational study of 200 symptomatic women attending the Gynecology OPD of Umaid Hospital Dr. S. N. Medical College Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India from February 2015 to October 2016. Evaluation of all symptomatic women done with Pap smear, colposcopy and biopsy in selected cases and findings were noted.Results: Commonest complaint was white discharge per vaginum in 58.5% followed by pelvic pain in 24% women. 8% women had abnormal pap smear findings with 4% of women had ASCUS, 0.5% had ASC-H, 3% had LSIL and 0.5% had HSIL,73% had inflammatory and 19% with normal smear. 38.5% had abnormal colposcopy with maximum 28% women had acetowhite lesions. Sensitivity of pap smear was 44.44% while sensitivity of colposcopy was 88.88%.Conclusions: Pap smear had poor sensitivity as compared to colposcopy. Hence simultaneous use of colposcopy has shown to increase in the rate of carcinoma cervix detection in symptomatic women.
