Women with benign breast diseases (BBD) are at a high risk of developing breast cancer. Objective: Purpose of the study was to analyze the spectrum of BBD in a tertiary care hospital of Lahore to understand the prevalence of inflammatory lesions, benign neoplasms and their age-wise comparison.Methodology: The study was carried out at Pathology Department, King Edward Medical University, Lahore. Data of 368 cases of BBD during a time span of 3 years (2011-2014) was obtained retrospectively.Results: There were 190 patients of fibroadenoma (FA), 81 of fibrocystic disease (FCD), 64 of breast abscess (BA), 12 of granulomatous mastitis (GM), 7 of lipoma, 5 of phylloides tumor (PL), 4 of fibrosis (F), 2 of intraductal papilloma (IDP) and 3 of accessory breast with Fibrocystic (FC) changes. The relation between theages and frequency of the different types of lesions was also analyzed to understand the association between predisposing factors and the nature of lesions.Conclusions: Out results demonstrated that the FA is the most frequent benign breast lesions and is common among young females with age ranges from 10 to 20 years. FCD is the second most common lesion, while FA and FCD are less common among women older than 40 years. Benign neoplasms are more frequentamong women of the Lahore. There were only three cases of sclerosing adenosis, 2 of microglandularadenosis, 3 of hyperplasia and no case of radial scar.

Benign Breast Lesions

Background: Benign breast diseases constitute a heterogeneous group of disorders including developmental abnormality, epithelial and stromal proliferation, inammatory lesions and neoplasm. Benign breast lesions deserve attention because of their high prevalence, their impact on women's life and due to cancerous potential of some histological types. Treatment of BBDS is preservation of breast tissue as far as possible in contrast to traumatizing mutilating surgeries in breast cancers. Objectives:To study pattern and presentation of benign breast lesions over a period of 1 year in a tertiary care hospital of Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh. Material and Methods: This study of 180 cases of histologically diagnosed benign breast lesions was carried out in the Department of Pathology, at tertiary care teaching hospital with attached peripheral hospitals in a metropolitan city of western India from August 2018 to July 2019. Results: Out of 180 benign lesions, 175 (97.2%) were found in females and 05 (2.8%) were found in males. Commonest benign breast lesion was broadenoma (86.1%), followed by brocystic disease (2.2%) and gynaecomastia (2.8%). Conclusion: Fibroadenoma is the most common benign breast disease. Most of the patients presented with painless lump in the breast in upper outer quadrant of the breast. Histopathology plays an important role in the diagnosis of benign breast diseases.

Benign breast lesions are common in young females and are painless. Fibroadenoma is the commonest lesion among all the breast lesions and occurs in any age.1:To study the age and sex wise distribution of benign breast lesions; 2: To study the clinicopathological changes of benign breast diseases; 3: To study different types of benign breast lesions; 4. To study the histomorphological changes of benign breast lesions with clinical correlation.A prospective study of two years was done to evaluate the different types, patterns of benign breast lesions in females in relation to age, clinical and radiological features.A total of 140 benign breast diseases were studied. Fibroadenoma (76; 54.2%) was the most common lesion noted in younger females (18-24yrs) followed by fibrocystic disease (25; 17.8%) & benign phyllodes (14; 10%).FNAC followed by histopathological examination were the diagnostic criteria used for confirmation of the lesions.Benign breast lesions were common in young females, presented with painless, mobile breast lumps. Mastalgia and nipple discharge were other symptoms.

Objective: To determine the frequency of anemia and its causative risk factors in patients attending the gynecology outpatient department of Nishtar Medical University and Hospital. Study Design: Cross sectional study. Setting: Gynecology Outpatient Department attendees of Nishtar Medical University and Hospital. Period: 1st September to 31st December 2019. Material & Methods: Total 361 females between 19-49 years of age were enrolled and included those patients who consented to be tested for blood hemoglobin estimation. Their brief history was taken after proper consent according to predesigned proforma to rule out the risk factors. Patients with chronic kidney disease, chronic lung diseases and liver diseases were excluded. Blood test was done by obtaining the blood sample by finger prick method. Hemoglobin analysis was performed by portable Hemocueanalyser. Frequency of anemia, severity of anemia and their stratification was performed against the risk factors like age, educational status, socioeconomic status, status of pregnancy, parity and contraception were obtained to rule the causative factors. Anemia was defined per standard criteria as hemoglobin less than 11gm/dl. Results:  Majority of patients 65% were between 19-35 years of age and 34% were 36-49years of age. Frequency of pregnant patients and non-pregnant patients was 63.4% and 36.6%.  Frequency of anemia was 56.8%, mean hemoglobin 10.48±1.18 with mild, moderate and severe anemia were 36.8%, 17.2% and 2.8%. Majority of females 82.9%, never went to school and had primary education, 71.70% belong to very poor and poor socioeconomic status, 79.02% were multipara and 81.95% never and infrequently practiced the contraceptive methods. Conclusion:  Frequency of anemia is very high in females presenting to tertiary care hospital being more common in younger age group. Frequent pregnancies, poor socioeconomic status and low level of educational attainment were the major determinants of anemia in females.

Transfusion of blood components and derivatives in day care unit is an eminent part of management of transfusion dependent patients. Day care transfusion service is an alternative to hospital admission and beneficial for those patients who receive blood more frequently for their survival. The aim of present study is to assess Transfusion Services provided in a Day Care Unit (DCU) of a tertiary care hospital. This study was carried out in DCU of Transfusion Medicine Department, Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University, (BSMMU), in Dhaka during January to December 2014. Data were collected from record registers. Recorded retrospective data were analyzed as percentage and proportion. Total recipients were 718. Among those 424 (59.05%) were male and 294 (40.95%) were female and 562 (78.27%) were between 10 to 40 years. A total of 8587 units of blood components were used during this period. Red Cell Concentrate was most commonly utilized product 6388 (74.39%)  followed by FFP 1360 (15.83%), Platelet Concentrate 544 (6.33%), Whole blood 260 (3.05%) and Cryoprecipitate 35(0.40%). Transfusion was required more frequently in thalassaemic 365(50.88%) patients. Haemophilia 77(10.72%) and aplastic anaemia patients 49 (6.82%) were next high. The main transfusion reaction observed during transfusion was febrile non-haemolytic reactions. For increasing use of specific blood product and hassle free transfusion services this kind of day care unit services should be strengthened. Long term study of this kind will help us to develop safe clinical transfusion practice. Bangladesh Med J. 2019 May; 48 (2): 28-31
