Background: The uterus has a pyriform shape and is separated into the cervix and body. Ectocervix and endocervix are the two types of cervix. The present study was conducted to assess non neoplastic and neoplastic lesions of uterine cervix. Materials & Methods: 90 specimens received from hysterectomy, cervical biopsy, cervical polypectomy from department of obstetrics &gynecology were formalin fixed & paraffin embedded tissue sections were used for microscopic study. Microscopic findings were recorded and histopathological diagnosis were made. Results: Cervical specimens were 22 cervical biopsy, 60 hysterectomy and 8 polypectomy. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Non- neoplastic inflammatory lesions were inflammatory seen in 60, non-neoplastic cervical glandular lesions in 12 cases. Neoplastic lesions were benign in 10, precursor lesionsin 5 and malignant lesions in 3 cases. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Inflammatory lesions were acute cervicitis in 8, chronic non- specific cervicitis in 32 and chronic papillary endocervicitis in 20 cases. Benign lesions were endocervical polyp in 6, fibroepithelial polyp in 4 and leiomyomatous polyp in 2 cases. The difference was significant (P< 0.05). Conclusion: The gold standard for diagnosis is histological analysis of the biopsy specimen. The most prevalent cancers of the female genital tract are cervical cancers. |
