Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 2
Abstract
Aims And Objective:To study various types of cervical carcinoma and correlate histopathological findings with the clinical presentation of the patient. Material And Methods:The present study is a prospective study done over a period of two years, carried out in the department of Pathology in a tertiary care hospital. Our study composed of cervical specimens in the form of biopsies and sections of cervix from hysterectomy specimens received in a tertiary care hospital. Out of 788 cervical specimen 112 (14.2%) were found malignant on histopathology. Results:The maximum number of cases of invasive carcinoma were in 5th and 6th decades. Squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) was the commonest invasive carcinoma observed in this study with 100/112 cases (89.30%). Bleeding in the form of post-menopausal bleeding, post coital bleeding or inter-menstrual bleeding and foul smelling per vaginal discharge were the common presenting symptoms in patients having malignancy. Conclusions:All hysterectomy specimens must be sent for histopathological examination and studied meticulously, regardless of the preoperative diagnosis. As,some unusual findings bearing implications on treatment and prognosis will be revealed regardless of the reason for which cervical biopsy/ hysterectomy is performed. Newer terminologies with their descriptions, given by FIGO and WHO, will help to reduce ambiguity and bring uniformity in future studies.
