Background: The Female Genital Tract is a hormone-responsive system to a degree unmatched by any other system in the body. The gross configuration of the uterus changes dramatically throughout life. It is a kind of 'Puppet on a string", thus manipulated throughout life by altering levels of ovarian hormones. Objective of the study: The present study is aimed at detailed histopathological evaluation of uterine lesions of hysterectomy specimens. Methodology: A total of 448 cases of hysterectomy specimens were received in the department of pathology GGH Ananthapur, for two years, were reviewed. The specimens were processed, and the histopathological diagnosis was studied. Result: Peak age group of hysterectomy was 40-49 years with 186 (41.51%) cases. The youngest patient was 21 years old, and the oldest was 75 years old. The most frequent type of hysterectomy done was total abdominal hysterectomy in 293 (65.4%) cases. Conclusion: Hysterectomy is the most common surgery performed in gynecological practice. A wide range of lesions were noted when hysterectomy specimens are subjected to histopathological examination.

Common Indication

Introduction: Hysterectomy is the most commonly performed gynaecological surgery in India as well as in abroad. It is frequently done in myometrial and endometrial pathologies and rarely for other causes. Hysterectomy is definitive management for diseases like fibroid, adenomyosis, dysfunctional bleeding, prolapsed uterus and malignant lesions of uterus and adenexa. We aimed our study to observe incidence of different pathologies of uterus and other reproductive organs in hysterectomy specimens and retrospective correlation between clinical diagnosis and histopathological finding of hysterectomy cases.Materials and Methods: Retrospective data were collected from our routine histopathological laboratory. Detailed history, clinical examination and operative findings and provisional diagnosis of all 950 hysterectomy cases were recorded during study period of 2 years. Histopathological diagnosis was correlated with clinical and preoperative diagnosis.Observations: Abdominal hysterectomy (734 cases, 77.26%) was the most common route of approach during surgery. Common pre-operative diagnoses were fibroid uterus (32%), dysfunctional uterine bleeding (28.95%), uterine prolapsed (22.74%). Other causes included uterine polyps (1.6%), complications of pregnancy (2.74%), ovarian tumours (8.42%), cervical carcinomas (2.97%) etc. Common pathologies on histology were leiomyoma (32%), adenomyosis (20.32%), atrophic endometrium (17.26%) and endometrial pathology (8.95%).Discussion: Our study has been correlated with other studies of India and other south Asian countries. Most common indication of hysterectomy in our study is dysfunctional uterine bleeding (32%) but Gupta et al and Jha R et al found utero-vaginal prolapse as most common indication. Leiomyoma was the most common histology diagnosed in the present series. Clinical diagnosis was possible in 67.57% cases in our study similar to Khan et al (70.51%).Conclusions: Histopathological examination of hysterectomy specimens helps to detect the exact causes and underlined pathology.Bangladesh Journal of Medical Science Vol.17(1) 2018 p.88-92

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

Insight Into

Background: The present study was aimed to obtain insight into the varied histopathological patterns of lesions of uterus and cervix in hysterectomy specimens and their age-wise distribution in Index MedicalCollege, Hospital and Research Center. Methodology: This was anobservational study conducted on 100 cases of hysterectomy specimens received at tertiary care hospital Indore. All the specimen was subjected to detailed gross and histopathological examination. Results: Mean age of patients was 44.78±8.64 years. The most common age group was 41-50yrs (42%). Maximum cases were diagnosed as AUB/ DUB/Menorrhagia (31%) followed by fibroid uterus (28%). Uterus was bulky in 70%, cut sections revealed single fibroid in majority i.e. 39% cases and endometrium was in proliferative phase (early 12%, mid 30%, late 19%). Most common histopathological diagnosis of uterus was leiomyoma in 39% cases whereas chronic nonspecific cervicitis (47%) was most common histological diagnosis of cervix. Intramural leiomyoma were most common and were associated with degenerative changes in 33 cases. Hyaline degeneration was observed in maximum cases. Conclusion: The most common indication for hysterectomies in our institution is excessive uterine bleeding. Fibroid uterus as the cause of bleeding is the most common pathology for which hysterectomy is performed. Chronic cervicitis is the most common finding and Adenomyosis continued to be missed preoperatively and diagnosed postoperatively on histopathological examination. Every hysterectomy specimen should be subjected to histopathological examination to confirm various pathological lesions. Keywords: Leiomyoma, histopathology, spectrum, uterus, cervix, hysterectomy

Background: Ovarian tumors are one of the most common tumors, which occur in female genital tract. Despite the newer techniques in imaging and molecular biology, the diagnosis of ovarian tumors primarily depends on histopathological examination. Ovarian tumors manifests a wide spectrum of clinical, morphological and histological features. The aim of the study was to find the incidence of surface epithelial ovarian tumors in a tertiary referral centre. Materials and methods: A retrospective data of 3 years were collected for surface epithelial ovarian tumors submitted to the pathology department of the tertiary care hospital and analysed. The correlation of these surface epithelial ovarian tumors was done with age, clinical presentation and histomorphological patterns. Non-neoplastic lesions like simple ovarian cysts, tubo-ovarian mass and polycystic ovaries were excluded. Results: A total number of 56 cases were studied. Out of which 44 cases were benign and 12 cases were malignant. Maximum cases were observed between 21 to 30 years. Mass per abdomen was the most common presentation(36%) followed by mass and pain in abdomen(27%).Serous cystadenoma formed maximum 28 cases(50%) followed by Mucinous cystadenoma(16 cases) 28 % , Serous cysadenocarcinoma formed 5cases (9%), followed by Mucinous cystadenocarcinoma 3 cases(5%) & 2 cases each(4%) of clear cell carcinoma and endometrioid carcinoma were noted. The most common histopathological type of benign and malignant tumor was serous cystadenoma (50.2%) and serous cystadenocarcinoma(9%) respectively. Conclusion: In the study majority (78.6%) of the surface epithelial ovarian tumors were benign. Malignancy was seen in (21.4)% of the cases. Surface epithelial tumours present a great challenge to the gynecologic oncologist because non-neoplastic ovarian lesions can form a pelvic mass and potentially mimic a neoplasm. Correct histopathological diagnosis of surface epithelial ovarian tumors is of prime importance in view of their behavioral predictability and clinical correlation for proper management of the patient.

Background: Diseases of the gallbladder are pretty common. Most of the cases admitted in hospitals required surgical intervention and removal. Histopathological routine examination of the resected gallbladder shows a wide range of changes, from inflammatory to different variants and from premalignant to malignancy. This study is undertaken to find the changes in the cholecystectomy specimen along with their gender and age distribution. Methods: The present retrospective study was conducted in the cholecystectomy specimen received in the department of Pathology, Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS), a tertiary care hospital during the period of January 2014 to December 2016. The corresponding blocks are retrieved from the archives of the department, sections are cut and slides are stained with Hematoxylin and Eosin stain,Three representative slides of each specimen are examined. The aim of this study is to analyse the different histopathological changes of the gallbladder and their distribution in different age groups and as well as  in gender. Results: A total of 1506 cholecystectomy specimen were received in the histopathology section of the department. Out of which, 1282 cases (85.12%) were females while 224 cases (14.88%) were male patients. Female to male ratio is 6:1. The most common histopathological diagnosis of cholecystectomy specimen was chronic cholecystitis followed by chronic cholecystitis with focal evidence of cholesterolosis and xanthogranulomatous cholecystitis. There were 3 cases of incidental diagnosis of adenocarcinoma gallbladder. Conclusion: Chronic cholecystitis is the most common disease affecting the gallbladder which with a high rate of occurance all over the world. The study firmly recommends thorough histopathological examination of all resected gallbladder. Incidental diagnosis of adenocarcinoma further warrents the need for thorough histopathological examination to help in treatment and prognosis.

BACKGROUND A variety of non - neoplastic and neoplastic conditions involve the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses and nasopharynx and these are very common lesions encountered in clinical practice. Histopathological examination of these lesions is the gold standard for diagnosis because management and prognosis vary among different lesions. The aim of the present study was to evaluate the histopathological study of the lesions of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses and nasopharynx in relation to their incidence, age, gender and site wise distribution and to compare the results with the available data. METHODS A study of 88 cases was conducted for a period of 2 years from August 2017 to July 2019. After fixation, Processing and Haematoxylin and Eosin staining and special stains histopathological diagnosis was made. RESULTS Among 88 total cases, 58 were males and 30 were females. A male predominance was observed with a male to female ratio of 1.93 : 1. They were more common in third, fourth and fifth decade of life. Malignant nasal lesions were seen after fourth decade of life. Nasal lesions were more common in nasal cavity (67.05 %), followed by paranasal sinuses (18.18 %) and nasopharynx (14.75). Out of 88 total cases, 39 (44.32 %) were non - neoplastic, 30 (34.09 %) were benign and 19 (21.59 %) were malignant nasal lesions. CONCLUSIONS Sinonasal lesions and nasopharyngeal lesions can have various differential diagnoses. A complete clinical, radiological and histopathological correlation helps to categorize these sinonasal lesions into various non - neoplastic and neoplastic types. But histopathological examination remains the mainstay of definitive diagnosis.

Leiomyoma is one of the most commonly encountered benign gynaecological neoplasms. With a wide range of symptoms, sometimes even asymptomatic, these tumors are easy to diagnose and treat, unless there are degenerative changes, which makes them difficult to diagnose and differentiating them from other serious conditions including malignancy, thereby, complicating their management also. Here, the case present to you a case of 48-year-old women with symptoms and clinical examination suggesting fibroid uterus but imaging studies inconclusive to differentiate fibroid uterus with ovarian malignancy, thus, creating a diagnostic dilemma. Ultimately, patient underwent exploratory laparotomy, keeping possibility of ovarian malignancy. Histopathological examination of the specimen of total abdominal hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oopherectomy concluded extensive cystic degeneration of leiomyoma and no evidence of malignancy.
