ABSTRACT
Background:
Women worldwide suffer from various gynaecological disorders that require hysterectomy as a treatment option.Objectives:
Our aim was to conduct a histopathological study of various uterine lesions in hysterectomy specimens and to correlate the findings with clinical indications.Methods:
A prospective study was done on 200 hysterectomy specimens. The specimens were fixed in formalin and the tissue was adequately processed. The sections were stained with routine Haematoxylin and Eosin stain.Results:
In this study the most common clinical indication for hysterectomy was leiomyoma (57.0%) followed by utero-vaginal prolapse (28.5%). Clinical indication of leiomyoma was confirmed by histopathology in 96.5% cases, whereas that of cervical dysplasia, cervical polyp, squamous cell carcinoma cervix, chronic pelvic inflammatory disease, adenomyosis and endometrial carcinoma was confirmed in 100% cases.Conclusion:
The ultimate diagnosis and prognosis depends on the histopathological examination; therefore every operated specimen must be subjected to histopathology.
