“…We studied the histomorphological variations of cancer cervix in our institute. Squamous cell carcinoma was the most common histological type of cervical cancer as observed by Olu-Eddo et al, [8] Okoye, [9] Abudu et al, [10] Pathak et al [11] and Ikechebelu et al [12] with 92.3%, 84.2%, 93.6%, 92.56%, and 89.6% cases respectively which is similar to our study with 96.67% of cases. Okoye [9] had slightly less proportion of cases probably because they included metastatic carcinoma in their study group unlike other studies.…”

Aim: To study the clinicopathological spectrum of cervical cancers in tertiary care center to assess scenario in Central India. Materials and Methods: Retrospective study in the Department of Pathology in our institution to evaluate cases of cervical cancers from January 2014 to August 2015. Histopathological diagnosis was correlated with age, symptoms, gravida, Federation of Gynecology and Obstetrics staging, and other relevant clinical details wherever deemed necessary. The biostatical analysis was performed for quantitative data student's t-test was applied. P value was considered statistically significant if P < 0.05. Results: A total of 180 cases were of neoplasia cervix. Majority of cases were squamous cell carcinoma type, i.e., 96.6% (174 cases) followed by adenocarcinoma constituting only 2.8% (5 cases) with a mean age of 50.7 years and average gravida of 3.78. Majority of cases (50.01%) complained of postmenopausal bleeding followed by abnormal spotting (26.67%) and lower abdominal pain (7.78%). The most common presentation was in Stage IIB with 45.56% (82) cases. Conclusion: Histomorphology remains the mainstay of diagnosis of cervical cancers. In low compliance settings such as ours, colposcopy-guided biopsy is the preferred course of management, especially in elderly females to be definite to rule out or diagnose neoplasia. National level cervical cancer program is immediate need of the hour and should include human papilloma virus vaccine, awareness, and screening programs as well as treatment assistance for low socioeconomic strata.

INTRODUCTION: Majority of the specimens which reach the histopathology laboratory are from gynecology department. The accessibility of the cervix to direct examination makes it the object of intensive and large scale study. Various inflammatory as well as infectious lesions are common in uterine cervix due to vulnerability to sexual trauma and being an easy access to various infections. Cervical cancer is one of the most frequently seen cancer in women in India. AIM: The present study is aimed to find out the most common types of the cervical lesions, incidence and histological variants of malignancies in women so as to understand the distribution of various diseases. MATERIAL AND METHODS: This is a retrospective study done in Government Medical College , Ananthapuram , a Tertiary Care Centre, for a period of 2 years, from January 2017 to December 2018. RESULTS: A total of 448 cases were retrieved from histopathology department and evaluated. The age group of the patients was between 20-80years. There was about 388 (86.6%) cases were non –neoplastic and 60 (13.39%) cases were neoplastic. CONCLUSION: The most common of non neoplastic lesions was chronic non-specific cervicitis. Most common neoplastic lesion was squamous cell carcinoma.

“…Cervical carcinoma commonly occurs between the ages of 31 to 70 years with the peak in 41 to 50 years age brackets. 6 It rarely develops in women younger than 20. In our study too maximum frequency 1112 cases (33%) were found in the age group 40 to 49 years, with most patients falling within 30 to 70 years age group.…”

Introduction: Cervical carcinoma is an important women’s health problem throughout the world.There are very few published data on this disease in Nepal. We wanted to study the pattern ofcervical carcinoma based on hospital data.Methods: A 10 years retrospective study of scenario of cervical carcinoma was conducted. The datahave been analyzed according to age, occurrence of other cancers, histological type, religion, riskfactors and district wise.Results: The number of cervical carcinoma showed a rising pattern over the 10 year period. Themedian age of the patients was 45 years and maximum frequency (33%) of cases were found in theage group 40 to 49 years. Squamous cell carcinoma comprised 40% of cases, Adenocarcinoma 4% and1.1% cases were of mixed variety. 92% of cases were Hindu by religion. 43% of patients were smokerin our study, 5% had positive family history. Chitwan with 7.35% had the maximum number of casesfollowed by Rupandehi with 6.40% and Nawalparasi with 5.41%.Conclusions: The cancer pattern revealed by the present study provides valuable leads to cervicalcancer epidemiology in Nepal. Routine cytological screening of the population for cervical cancer ishighly necessary for its early detection and treatment.Key Words: Cervical carcinoma, hospital based study, Nepal, pattern
