Abstract

Introduction: Carcinoma of cervix is the most common cancer in Indian women and is the third largest cause of cancer mortality in India. The transformation zone of the cervix is vulnerable to HPV. A preneoplastic cervical intraepithelial neoplasia can regress, persist or progress towards invasive carcinoma.

Aims: To study the prevalence and histopathological spectrum of pre-malignant and malignant lesions of uterine cervix.

Methods: This was a retrospective cross-sectional study, carried out at Tertiary Care Hospital, in Department of Pathology, over a period of one-year.

Results:Total 14 cases (8%) of total hysterectomy and 156 cases (92%) of cervical biopsy were included, which included31 cases (18%) pre-malignant lesions (CIN-I, II, III, CIS) and 139 cases (82%) malignant. SCC was found in 73% cases and adenocarcinoma in 8.3%.

Limitations: Follow-up was not possible.

Conclusions: Awareness programs and educational sessions might help to reduce the burden of carcinoma cervix in India.
