Accidental caustic ingestion may have an unusual presentation and severe complications, but a favorable outcome. Guidance and education are important preventive tools, but the best approach is to restrict access to caustic agents by prohibiting their free commercialization.
Background: To study or analyse the histomorphological spectrum and distribution of benign and malignant ovarian neoplasms in women of different age groups Methods: 633 cases of ovarian tumors were studied over a period of 6 years(from July 2011 to July 2017) at the Department of Pathology, SDMH. All the cases were subjected to histopathological examination and IHC as & when required. Results: In total,633 ovarian tumor specimens were examined. Out of which ,468 cases (73.9%)were benign, 23 (3.6%)were boderline and 142(22.4%)were malignant. Most of the benign tumors occurred between 31 & 40 years of age while malignant lesions presented commonly between 41 & 50 years of age. Most common histological types were serous cystadenoma (24.18%) followed by mature cystic teratoma (22.90%).The commonest benign tumor was serous cystadenoma & the commonest malignant tumor was serous cystadenocarcinoma. Serous tumors showed bilateral involvement more commonly than bilateral mucinous tumors. Conclusion: We noted that serous cystadenoma tumors are the commonest variety of ovarian tumors. Also the age of presentation of these malignant tumors was an earlier age as compared to others.
Background: Neoplastic urinary bladder lesions are responsible for significant morbidity and mortality throughout the world. The WHO/ISUP consensus classification (2016) for Urothelial tumors reflects an improved understanding and knowledge of the morphological types. The new diagnostic categories will increase the diagnostic reproducibility, clinicopathological correlation and prognostication. The most important criterion for optimal cancer treatment is a correct classification of the tumor. Aim & Objectives: The aim is to study Histomorphological spectrum of urothelial tumors according to World Health Organization / International Society of Urological Pathology consensus classification (2016) and to determine age and sex distribution of urothelial tumors. Material & Method: Study included 300 urothelial tumor specimens, conducted over a period 15 months, extending from March 2016 to May 2017. H & E stained sections were examined for morphologic diagnosis of urothelial neoplasm. An attempt was made to classify urothelial neoplasm according to WHO/ISUP consensus classification (2016) by two senior consultants of the department. Results: Among 300 cases, 14.33% cases were diagnosed as Infiltrating urothelial carcinoma, 85.66% cases were of Non-invasive urothelial neoplasia. Amongst which Non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma, low grade were most common that is 55.33% cases. Maximum no. of cases was diagnosed (33%) in 61-70 years of age group and male Female ratio being 3:1. Conclusion: This study documents a high frequency of non-invasive than infiltrating type of urothelial neoplasm. Non-invasive papillary urothelial carcinoma, low grade constitutes the commonest of urothelial tumors. Urothelial tumors are seen commonly in seventh decade with overall a male predominance.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
