Introduction: Colposcopy is done to detect cervical cancer and changes that may lead to cervical cancer. We aimed our study to observe the incidence of different pathologies of the cervix in Colposcopic specimens in Rajshahi Medical College of Bangladesh. Materials and Methods: Retrospective data were collected from the routine histopathological laboratory in the department of pathology Rajshahi Medical College and were recorded during a study period of 1 year (July 2019 to June 2020). Observations: Colposcopic biopsy is one of the commonest diagnostic procedures for assessing cervical Pathosis. Out of 641 specimens more than half, 365 specimens (56.50%) were Chronic Cervicitis. In present study, Chronic Cervicitis with squamous metaplasia and Invasive squamous cell carcinoma became the 2nd, 16.39% (105 specimens), and 3rd, 13.42% (86 specimens) most pathology involving the cervix. Cervical polyp, Endocervical and Leiomyomatous constitute 6.39% and 1.57% of the specimens respectively. 4.36% (28 specimens) of the study sample were the Intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN I, CIN II, CIN III). Adenocarcinoma and Clear cell carcinoma constitute 0.79% and 0.16% of the study specimens. 50 % of the cervical squamous cell carcinoma was moderately differentiated and well-differentiated and poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma constitutes 30.23% and 19.77% respectively. Conclusions: Colposcopic examination of cervical biopsy specimens helps to detect the exact causes and underlined pathology

Introduction: Many vision threatening or life threatening neoplastic conditions often mimic less aggressive neoplastic or non-neoplastic inflammatory variants. This study aims to comprehensively analyze the histopathological spectrum of ophthalmic neoplastic lesions tumors in a pathology laboratory in a tertiary care hospital. Methods: A descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in the Department of Pathology at Birat Medical College and Teaching Hospital, Morang, Nepal over a period from November 2016 to October 2018. Ethical clearance was taken from Institutional Review Committee of Birat Medical College. Sample size was calculated and convenience sampling was done. Data was collected in excel and analyzed in Statistical Package for Social Sciences version 16. Point estimate at 95% Confidence Interval was calculated and frequency and percentage was calculated for binary data. Subgroup analysis was done based on age, sex, nature of lesions and site of lesions. Results: Prevalence of ophthalmic neoplastic lesion was 139 (55.37%), of which 74 (53.24%) were benign and 65 (46.76%) were malignant. Benign was mostly seen in females and of second decade and malignant was common in males and seventh decade of life respectively. Nevus in 18 (24.3%) and squamous cell carcinoma in 30 (17.6%) was found to be the most common benign and malignant lesions among the specimens. Conjunctiva and cornea in 52 (37.41%) was the most common location for those neoplastic lesions. Conclusions: The most common ophthalmic neoplastic lesion was benign. Nevus is common in females and second decade and squamous cell carcinoma is common in males and seventh decade of life.

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.

Background: Around the globe, carcinoma of the esophagus is the eighth most prevalent cancer with an incidence of 456,000 cases per year and is the sixth cause of cancer mortality. There are two major histological subtypes of carcinoma of the esophagus, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma. The aim of the current study is to evaluate the frequency of different histopathological types of esophageal cancer in patients presenting at the tertiary care hospital of Karachi. Patients and methods: It was a cross-sectional study conducted at the Department of Clinical Oncology, Jinnah Postgraduate Medical Center, Karachi from March 2017 till March 2019. Two hundred and one histologically proven cases of esophageal cancer of in patients of either gender and between 15-80 years of age were included. Patients were interviewed and data regarding age, gender, education, marital status, employment status, addictions like cigarette or huqqa smoking, consumption of pan, betel nut, naswar, or gutka were recorded. Endoscopy and histology and computed tomography scan were performed. Stage, site, grade and type of tumor were noted. SPSS version 23 was used to analyze data. Mean and SD were calculated for quantitative variables. Frequency and percentage were calculated for qualitative variables. A Chi-square test was used to assess the significance between age and gender with type of EC. A p-value≤0.05 was taken as significant. Results: Mean age of the patients was 47.84. The majority of the patients had stage 2 of cancer (42.8%) and lower tumor site (62.2%) Squamous cell carcinoma was the most common histopathological type in 137 patients out of 201 (68%). The age, gender, smoking, consumption of pan, grade, site, and stage of the tumor showed a statistically significant difference when compared with esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and esophageal adenocarcinoma. Conclusion: The burden of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma is dramatically increasing in the Pakistani population and squamous cell carcinoma was the most common histopathological type.

This retrospective study of histopathological specimens was done at the Department of Pathology of Rajshahi Medical College, Bangladesh, from July 2019 to June 2020, emphasizing challenges and diagnosis outcomes. Data obtained from their case notes included age at admission, the site from where the specimens were collected, and histopathological diagnosis.  Out of the 2026 histopathology samples, chronic cervicitis constitutes about 50% of the cases. Serous cystadenoma (about 1/4th cases) was common among ovarian pathology. 54.16% of the breast pathology exhibited Invasive ductal carcinoma. Reactive follicular hyperplasia and lymphoma constitute 49.44% of the lymph node pathology. About 80% of the gall bladder pathology was chronic cholecystitis, and metastatic adenocarcinoma was the commonest pathology involving the liver. Squamous cell carcinoma constitutes about 40% of the skin pathology. Osteosarcoma, osteochondroma, and giant cell tumor were the common pathologies involved in bones. Transitional cell carcinoma constitutes about 45% of urinary bladder pathology, and renal cell carcinomas were the commonest pathology of the kidney. Adenocarcinoma constitutes about 45 % of stomach pathology, 28% of small intestine pathology, and 14% of large intestine pathology.  Histopathological specimens at the pathology Rajshahi Medical College department with a wide range of pathologies are a major problem. From this study necessity of screening programs for early cancer detection appeared as a time-demanding issue. TAJ 2021; 34: No-1: 16-25

Oral cancer is one of the most common cancer and constitute a major public health problem. It is estimated that more than 90% of all oral neoplasms are oral squamous cell carcinoma. The purpose of the study was to evaluate the clinical profile of patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma for gender, age, education, occupation, personal habits, site of lesion and histological grading. Two hundred and sixteen confirmed cases of oral squarnous cell carcinoma were included in this study. It was conducted over a period of two years from July 2009 to June 2011 in the department of Dental Surgery of Khulna Medical College Hospital. Male female ratio was 1.5: 1. Mean age was 50.46 years. Correlation between two variables ie. level of education and histomorphological pattern of the lesion were found to be statistically nonsignificant (P>0.05). The commonest age of presentation was in the fifth decade of life. Most of the cases reported at advance stages of the disease which often leads to delay in the management. Majority of patients (70.73%) presented with well differentiated squamous cell carcinoma. Tobacco chewing was the major cause for the development of oral carcinoma DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/bmjk.v47i1-2.22554 Bang Med J (Khulna) 2014; 47 : 3-6
