We retrieved breast biopsies received in histopathology department over a period of 18 months from January 2015 to October 2016. A total of 602 cases of breast lesions were included in the study. Results: Out of a total of 602 cases of breast lesions, most common lesions were benign 454 (75.4%) with mean age 30.15 years, followed by malignant 99(16.4%) with mean age 48.5 years and inflammatory 49 (8.1%) with mean age 32.9 years. The overall mean age of patients was 31.8 years, with a wide age range of 11–88 years. Overall the most commonly reported lesion was fibroadenoma 322(53.4%) cases, followed by infiltrating duct carcinoma 83 (13.7%) cases, mastitis 45(7.4%) cases, gynecomastia 39(6.4%) and fibrocystic disease 37 (6.1%) cases.
