TO STUDY RELATION BETWEEN SIZE OF OVARY AND VARIOUS HISTOMORPHOLOGICAL PATTERNS

Abstract

Background & Method: The present study is based on histomorphological evaluation in 214 cases of Ovarian neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions received at the department of Pathology of a Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal from Apr 2017 to March 2019.

Result: All lesions of size 03cm or less are non neoplastic. Of 133 non neoplastic cases, 72 are of size 4 to 6 cm, 36 cases of size 07to 10 cm and 11 cases are >10cm. Out of 47 benign neoplastic lesions 25 are more than 10 cm in size, 18 are of size 07 to 10 cm and 04 cases are of 04 to 06 cm in size.  24 out of 31 malignant cases are more than 10 cm in size, 05 cases are of size 07 to 10 cm and 02 cases are of size 04 to 06 cm. Of tumour size more than 10 cm, 25 are benign tumours and 24 are malignant tumours. Out of 59 cases of size 07 to 10 cm, 36 cases are non neoplastic, 18 cases are benign tumours and 05 are malignant tumours.

Conclusion: Among the 214 cases, non neoplastic lesions (62.0%) were more common than the neoplastic lesion (38.0%). Overall incidence of malignancy was 14.4%, and it is 38% among neoplastic lesions. Among 133 non neoplastic lesions studied simple serous cyst (36%) was commonest followed by corpus luteal cyst (25%). Out of 81 tumours, surface epithelial tumours (67.6%) are the commonest ovarian tumours followed by germ cell tumours (24.7%).
