Introduction: Ovarian neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesions
present today an immense challenge to gynecological
pathologists. Ovarian cancer is the seventh leading cause of
cancer death (age standardized mortality rate: 4/100,000)
among women worldwide and in India its comprising upto 8.7%
of cancers in different parts of the country.
Aims & Objectives: To study the non-neoplastic and neoplastic
lesions of ovary in South Western part of Punjab.
Materials & Methods: A prospective clinico-pathological study
of 92 cases of non-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions of ovary
was conducted in Department of Pathology at Adesh Institute
of Medical Sciences and Research, Bathinda over the period
of one year. The non-neoplastic and neoplastic lesions from
representative sections were studied and classified according
to World Health Organization (WHO) Classification 2002 and
staging was done according to International Federation of
Gynecology and Obstetrics (FIGO) staging.
Results: Amongst 92 cases studied during study period, 39
were non-neoplastic and remaining 53 were neoplastic. The
most common non-neoplastic lesion found was corpus luteal
cysts (38.46%) followed by solitary follicular cysts (30.76%).
Among the 53 neoplastic ovarian lesions 42 (79.2%) cases
were benign and 11 (20.7%) cases were malignant. In the 42
benign ovarian neoplasms, most commonly seen lesion was
serous cyst adenoma followed by benign cystic teratoma and
mucinous cyst adenoma. Out of total 11 malignant cases,
maximumwasof serous cyst adenocarcinoma (36.3%) followed
by three cases (27.2%) of mucinous cyst adenocarcinoma.
Conclusion: Most of the benign tumors were observed in the
age group of 20-40 years, while most of the malignant tumor
cases were common in elderly (>40 years) age group. The
most commonly seen benign neoplastic lesion was serous
cyst adenoma whereas serous cyst adenocarcinoma was the
most common malignant ovarian neoplasm. Histopathology
remains the gold standard for the diagnosis along with all other
advanced ancillary techniques such as immunohistochemistry.
