Results:In the present study, total 357 cases were analyzed with most common age group were between 41-50 years old with most common cases were of asymptomatic routine 119(33%), followed by WDPV 57cases (16%) and abdominal pain 33 cases (9%). 234 smears (65%) belong to NILM, 63 smears (17%) Inflammatory changes and 31 smears (8.68%) of atrophic related changes. Conclusion: This study concludes that premalignant and malignant lesions were less prevalent in our institution.
