Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 5
Abstract
Background: Skin adnexal tumors present a wide variety of architectures, which often present problems in classifying is the most challenging in pathology. Material and Method: Biopsy samples received in 10% neutral buffered formalin. After fixation and tissue processing, sections were embedded in the liquid paraffin and later stained by H & E then mounted and examined under microscope. Results:The present study of 53 skin adnexal tumours extended over a period of five years from January 2013 to December 2017. The overall incidence (i.e. 0.21%) of adnexal tumours was very less (53 cases) as compared to the total number of biopsies (24267) received in the histopathology section during that period. Conclusion: An overall incidence of skin adnexal tumours is very low in India. The incidence of benign skin adnexal tumours is more as compared to the malignant. Clinically it is difficult to detect or make correct diagnose these tumours as they do not possess very characteristic clinical features. Skin adnexal tumours can found anywhere over the body, however head and neck regions are the most common site
