Abstract

Introduction: Cervical lesions are potential causes of morbidity and mortality in women and biopsy being a routine procedure in the early diagnosis. Our study aims to determine the frequency and histomorphological patterns of various non-neoplastic and neoplastic cervical lesions. Materials and Methods: This study consists of a total of 250 cases of cervical biopsies submitted for histopathology over a period of one year. Clinical details of all the patients were obtained. Results: Among 250 cases included, majority 212 (84.2%) were non neoplastic lesions and 38 (15.2%) were neoplastic, out of which 11 (4.4%) were LSIL, 9 (3.6%) HSIL, 17 (6.8%) carcinomas and one was a case of cervical leiomyoma. Maximum females (50%) subjected to biopsy belonged to the age group of 31–50 years. The mean age for neoplastic lesions was 45 years. Chief complaint in most cases 130 (52%) was white discharge.Conclusion: Biopsy is a valuable procedure which aids in early diagnosis and plan the treatment.
