Abstract

Introduction: Skin disorders, presenting clinically, have wide spectrum of distributions with some of them diagnosed quickly by their clinical features, while other requires detailed investigational work up like skin biopsy. In our study we focused on the clinico-pathological pattern of various non-neoplastic lesion and find out the consistency between clinical diagnosis and histopathological examination. Methods: A total of 102 cases of non-neoplastic skin leisons were studied. Clinical diagnosis was correlated by histopathological examination with H and E stain. Special stains were used when required. Results: Maximum number of cases showed infectious disease consisting 36 cases of all non-neoplastic skin biopsies followed by 27 cases of non-infectious erythematous, papular and squamous disease, 10 cases of connective tissue disorders, 7 cases of non-infectious vesiculobullous and vesiculopustular disease, 5 cases of genodermatoses, 4 cases of panniculitis/ folliculitis and 13 cases having non-specific histology. Conclusions: In establishing a diagnosis, investigational work up and clinicopathological correlation is always desired; skin biopsy remains the cornerstone for aforementioned.
