Spectrum Of Histopathological Lesions In Lungs At Medico Legal Autopsy: A Ten Years Study

Introduction: (1) The female genital tract is constituted by the ovaries, fallopian tubes, uterus (body/corpus and cervix), vagina, and vulva. Female genital tract lesions can be benign or malignant. Our study was carried out to nd out the frequency of various histopathological lesions including neoplasms of female genital tract. Materials and Methods: Our study is retrospective conducted over 2 years period. Data was collected from case records of patients presenting to Goa Medical College and histopathology reports obtained from Dept of pathology. Data was represented in form of charts and tables. The analysis of statistical data of variables was done using SPSS software version 22. Signicance was calculated using chi square test. Value of p <0.05 was considered signicant. Results: Out of total 270 subjects studied, 229 were having benign lesions and 41 had malignant lesions.The mean age was 49.5 years. Leiomyoma was diagnosed in (40.58%) cases. In abnormalities of endometrium proliferative endometrium was seen in 37.6%. Chronic cervicitis was seen 78.74% cases. Among the ovarian lesions, 67.74% cases were simple follicular cysts. Cervical cancer was found in 73.17% cases followed by ovarian malignancies in 19.51 % cases, endometrial carcinoma in 4.87% cases and vulvar cancer in 2.44% cases. Among the malignant tumors (58.54%) cases were postmenopausal women. Conclusion: Microscopic assessment and clinico-pathological correlation of lesions is necessary as grossly identiable benign lesion may harbour a focus of malignancy. It aids to appropriate management in the postoperative period. A concerted effort should be done towards prevention of cancers, by creating awareness through health education in addition to implementation of screening methods.

Objective: To study the spectrum of histopathological lesions found on surgically resected gallbladder to quantify the various abnormalities in gallbladder specimen. Methodology: A descriptive observational study was carried out from Nov 2017 to Oct 2021. All the patients undergoing emergency and elective cholecystectomy regardless of age and sex were included in the study. After cholecystectomy, gallbladder specimen along with history and ultrasound findings was sent for histopathology to our own institution. Department of histopathology has the standardized method to process the gallbladder specimens. Demographic data along with diagnosis, ultrasound finding and histopathology report were collected and analyzed with Excel 2019. Results: Total number of patients in this study was 395, out of which 93 patients were male and 302 patients were female. Average age of our patients was 43.05± 13 years. Acute calculus cholecystitis was found in 55 (13.92%) patients, 298 (75.44) patents had chronic calculus cholecystitis, empyema was found in 15 (3.80) patients, cholestrolosis was found in 5 (1.27%) patients, gallbladder polyp was found in 02 (0.51%) patients, gangrenous gall bladder was found in 01 (0.25%) patient and adenocarcinoma in situ was found in 01 (0.25%) patient. Conclusion: Our study shows that, chronic cholecystitis is the most common presentation followed by acute cholecystitis in surgically resected gallbladders. Females are predominantly suffering from the gallbladder diseases. The frequency of malignant lesion was very low.
