Journal Title: Medpulse International Journal of Pathology - Year 2019, Vol 9, Issue 3
Abstract
Background: Cervical cancer is the fourth most frequent cancer in women with an estimated 570,000 new cases in 2018 representing 6.6% of all female cancers. In India, it is one of the most common cancer in female with an incidence of 14.42/1,00,000 population and mortality rate of 2.83/1,00,000 population. In this study we analyse the various histopathological patterns of cervical biopsies in women presenting with bad cervix in a tertiary care centre. Methods: This is a retrospective study conducted in Department of Pathology for over a period of 3 years from January 2016 to December 2018.Cervical biopsies were sent in 10% formalin and were subjected to histopathological examination. Results: Total 232 patients were evaluated in this study. Cases were in the age group of 21-90 years. The maximum number of cases were seen in the age group of 41-50 years (37.93%). Distribution of diagnoses are CIN I 26 cases(11.63%),CIN II 12 cases(5.17%),CIN III19 cases(8.18%),SCC 36 cases(15.51%) and adenocarcinoma 3 cases(1.29%).The most frequent lesion of the cervix studied was of chronic non-specific cervicitis accounting for 99 cases (42.67%). Conclusion: A comprehensive approach to cervical cancer prevention and control that includes multi-disciplinary interventions across the life course.
