Objective: Endoscopic duodenal biopsies constitute a significant load of specimens in the histopathological section of a tertiary care hospital. Most of these diseases comprise non-neoplastic lesions causing significant morbidity. The purpose of this study was to see the frequency of these diseases in our patient population and to compare and analyze our results with similar other studies. Methods: In this retrospective study records of all duodenal biopsies reported from Feb 2017- Jan 2018 were retrieved. Both non neoplastic and neoplastic conditions along with biopsies with unremarkable findings were included. Various histological parameters like villous blunting, IEL count per 100 enterocytes, crypt hyperplasia, inflammation in lamina propria, and presence of microorganisms, any dysplasia or malignancy were studied. Data was statistically analyzed using SPSS v.23. Results: A total of 159 duodenal biopsies were included in the study. Normal duodenal morphology was noted in 85 (53.45%) cases while 74 (46.83%) cases revealed abnormal duodenal pathology. There were 46 (28.93%) cases consistent with celiac disease. Twenty eight (17.61%) cases were of other duodenal pathologies of which non-specific duodenitis was most common. There were 22 (13.83%) cases of duodenitis and 2 (1.26%) cases were of duodenal ulcer. One case (0.62%) each was seen of Brunner gland hyperplasia, adenocarcinoma, signet ring carcinoma and one case was of metastatic adenocarcinoma. Conclusion: In our study we found a significant percentage of 46.83% exhibiting abnormal duodenal pathology. Cases consistent with celiac disease were 28.93% while 13.83% of the cases had duodenitis. The percentage of malignant cases was minimal (1.88%).

BACKGROUND Salivary gland lesions constitute less than 1 % of tumours and about 4 % of all epithelial neoplasms of head and neck region. These comprise of a wide variety of benign, malignant and non-neoplastic lesions which exhibits a difference in histological behaviour. There are no reliable criteria to differentiate on clinical grounds the benign from malignant ones. So morphological evaluation is necessary. We aim to study the frequency of various salivary gland lesions in sialoadenectomy specimens and categorise them into neoplastic and nonneoplastic lesions. METHODS It is a record based retrospective 5-year study carried out in the Government Medical College, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala, from January 2014 to December 2018. RESULTS In this study a total of 329 histopathologically proven cases of salivary gland lesions were included. Neoplastic lesions and non-neoplastic lesions constituted 78.42 % and 21.58 % respectively. Pleomorphic adenoma was the most common neoplasm (50.54 %) trailed by Warthin’s tumour (9.73 %). Most common malignant neoplasm encountered in our study was mucoepidermoid carcinoma (9.73 %) among which low grade tumours showed predominance. We observed significantly higher incidence of benign and malignant lesions in the 5 th to 6th decade while non neoplastic lesions were seen more in the 4th to 5th decade. Average age of the patients with salivary gland tumours was 46.12  SD 15.57. Majority of cases of salivary gland lesions in our study were from parotid gland (75.68 %) followed by submandibular gland 24.01 %. CONCLUSIONS Pleomorphic adenoma was the most common benign tumour in our study and mucoepidermoid carcinoma the most common malignant tumour. Neoplastic lesions showed a predominance over non neoplastic lesions. Histopathological examination is the mainstay for diagnosis and clinical management.

Needle Aspiration Cytology

Background: Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a quick, sensitive, safe, reliable and cost-effective outdoor procedure that has a lower risk of complications as compared to a surgical biopsy. This study was conducted to analyse the various cytomorphological patterns establishing the diagnosis on FNAC in peripheral lymphadenopathy patients along with their clinical presentation.Methods: This study included 300 patients of peripheral lymphadenopathy in a tertiary care hospital of north-central Haryana. FNAC was done under all aseptic conditions and various cytomorphological patterns were analysed.Result: On stratification of lymph node lesions, 240/300 cases (80%) were reported as non-neoplastic and 60/300 cases (20%) as neoplastic lesions. Among the non-neoplastic lesions, granulomatous pathology was the commonest lesion encountered in 137/240 cases (57.1%), followed by reactive lymphoid hyperplasia and suppurative lymphadenitis. Metastatic involvement of lymph node was the commonest pathological finding diagnosed in 52/60 of malignant neoplastic cases (86.66%). Overall, the cervical lymph nodes were most commonly involved in 68.66% patients, followed by other lymph nodes.Conclusion: Lymphadenopathy can have varied etiologies ranging from non-neoplastic to neoplastic conditions. FNAC as a first line investigative procedure in lymphadenopathy patients obviates the need for surgical excision and guides subsequent patient therapy and management. The cervical group of lymph nodes are most commonly involved in both non neoplastic as well as neoplastic lymph node lesions. In younger age group (<30 years) non neoplastic causes of lymphadenopathy are more common whereas in elderly the malignant neoplastic causes are more common. The secondary metastatic carcinoma is more common than primary lymphoma of the lymph nodes.

Abstract Background Placenta accreta spectrum (PAS) is a significant cause of maternal and neonatal mortality and morbidity. Its prevalence has been rising considerably, primarily due to the increasing rate of primary and repeat cesarean sections. Accurate prenatal identification of PAS allows optimal management because the timing of delivery, availability of blood products, and recruitment of skilled anesthesia, and surgical team can be arranged in advance. Aims and Objectives This study aimed to (1) study the ultrasound and color Doppler features of PAS, (2) correlate imaging findings with clinical and per-operative/histopathological findings, and (3) evaluate the accuracy of ultrasound for the diagnosis of PAS in patients with previous cesarean section. Materials and Methods This prospective study was conducted in radiology department of a tertiary care hospital. After screening 1,200 pregnant patients, 50 patients of placenta previa with period of gestation ≥ 24 weeks and history of at least one prior cesarean section were included in the study. Following imaging features were evaluated: (1) gray scale covering intraplacental lacunae, disruption of uterovesical interface, myometrial thinning, loss of retroplacental clear space, and focal exophytic masses; and (2) color Doppler covering intraplacental lacunar flow, hypervascularity of uterine serosa–bladder wall interface, and perpendicular bridging vessels between placenta and myometrium. Study Design Present study is a prospective one in a tertiary care hospital. Results Of the 19 PAS cases, 18 were correctly diagnosed on ultrasonography (USG) and confirmed either by histopathological analysis of hysterectomy specimen or per-operatively due to difficulty in placental removal. PAS was correctly ruled out in 27 of 31 patients. The diagnostic accuracy of USG was 90%. The sensitivity, specificity, positive, and negative predictive values were 94.7, 87.1, 81.8, and 96.4%, respectively. Conclusion Ultrasound is indispensable for the evaluation of pregnant patients. It is an important tool for diagnosing PAS, thereby making the operating team more cautious and better equipped for difficult surgery and critical postoperative care. It can be relied upon as the sole modality to accurately rule out PAS in negative patients, thereby obviating unnecessary psychological stress among patients due to possible hysterectomy.
