Materials and Methods : This is a 2 years retrospective study of all cervical biopsies and hysterectomy specimens received from 2015 to 2017 in the department of pathology. Result : In a total of 635 cases studied 341 (53.7%) cases were non-neoplastic, 96 (15.11%) were preinvasive and 198 (31.18%) cases were malignant.
