Journal Title: International Journal of Medical Research Professionals - Year 2017, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Background: In India, 90,000 of new cases of cervical cancer occur every year. Cancer that develops in the ectocervix is usually squamous cell carcinoma, and around 80- 90% of cervical cancer cases (more than 90% in India) are of this type. Histopathological studies of the cervix along with clinical correlation are very important for early diagnosis in diseases of the cervical diseases. In this study, we are trying to establish a specific spectrum of various types of neoplastic and non-neoplastic cervical lesions on the basis of their histopathological features in North West Rajasthan. Method: In this study we included 300 patients irrespective of their age, who attended the hospital and cervical biopsies were sent for histopathological confirmation to the department of pathology, Sardar Patel Medical College, Bikaner, Rajasthan, India. Results: Histopathological study of various lesions in cervical biopsies in this region showed that 64.7% lesions are neoplastic type and 35.3 % are non- neoplastic type. Highest incidence of non-neoplastic lesions in 41-50 years (33.01%) and neoplastic lesions 41-50 years (35.05 %). Cervical lesions are most common in Hindu community (79 %), Sikhs were second to Hindus (6.33 %) and Muslims have least incidence (6.33%). In non-neoplastic pathology, most common is chronic non-specific cervicitis (46.22 %). Endocervical polyp is most common type of polyp (71.17 %). Squamous cell carcinoma has the highest incidence (87.62%) among various neoplastic lesions and moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma is most common type of squamous cell carcinoma (92.35%).
