Introduction: Meningiomas are a group of slow-growing, primary intracranial neoplasms, that account for approximately 28 to 30% of the primary central nervous system (CNS) tumors1,2,3,4. They can occur at any age but are most common in middle-aged patients1. Headache is the most common symptom followed by seizures in the cases of intracranial meningiomas. Accurate histopathological diagnosis and grading of these tumors are essential for the management, prognosis, and follow-up of patients. To study Aims and Objectives: incidence, histomorphological types and grade meningiomas according to the WHO grading system. It is a retrospe Material and methods: ctive study comprised of 46 cases of meningioma, which are diagnosed in the Pathology Department. In the present study, Result: the most common age group for presentation is 41-50 years. Male to Female ratio was 1:2.01. Among the chief presenting symptoms, headache is the most common symptom followed by seizures. Meningothelial meningioma was the most common subtype, followed by psammomatous meningioma. Meningiomas are rare slow- Conclusion: growing tumors which are more common in the adult female. A meningothelial variant is the most common variant which is WHO grade 1 meningioma, readily curable by resection. Grade 1 meningiomas have a good prognosis whereas grade 2 and 3 meningiomas have low frequency but come with a poor prognosis
Introduction: Liver is affected by a variety of diseases, primary as well as secondary. The majority of chronic liver diseases may remain undiagnosed as some lesions have no clinical signs and symptoms. They are found incidentally during general health check-ups or at autopsy. Aims &Objective:- To study the histomorphological spectrum of liver lesions at autopsy irrespective of the cause of death., To assess the frequency of the different types of lesions. The present study was conducted on 400 liver autopsy Material And Methods: specimens received in the department of Pathology, Medical College, Baroda, Gujarat. Tissue sections from representative areas were processed, stained, and examined under the light microscope. Out of 400 specimens, 36 (9%) cases were autolyzed, 164(41%)cases showed conge Result: stion, followed by 110 (27.5%) cases of hepatic steatosis. Normal histology was found in 40(10%) cases, 20(5%) cases showed cirrhosis. Other ndings included periportal inammation in 10 (2.5%)cases, tuberculous granuloma in 5(1.25%)cases, metastatic tumor in 5(1.25%)cases, and 3(0.75%) cases showed the presence of sickle-shaped RBCs in blood vessels of the liver. Males predominated the study with a Male: Female ratio of 3.16:1. Maximum cases was in the age group of 31-40 years. Autopsy examination of liver is a valuable tool to identify silent Conclusion: liver diseases. In the present study, liver pathology is more common in males, the most common age group is 31-40 years, congestion and steatosis comprise signicant ndings
