Abstract
Objectives: This study is conducted to assess the various predisposing factors for cancer cervix and to correlate the clinicaland pathological finding using cervix histopathology.Background: Cervical cancer is the third most common cancer in women worldwide accounting for 9% of all female cancerand 9% death in female due to cervical cancer. We studied 150 cases of cervical carcinoma with different clinical presentationsand correlated them with histopathological findings in tertiary hospital in Aurangabad, Maharashtra.Materials and Methods: A total of 150 cases histopathologically diagnosed as cervical cancer over a period of 1 year wereconsidered for the study. Clinical details of the patient were noted with the help of semi-structured pro forma. The data wereanalyzed and P value calculated.Results: Of 150 patients, 88 had moderately differentiated squamous cell carcinoma, 24 poorly differentiated, and 32 welldifferentiated. Adenocarcinoma numbered only six. 98 cases were in the age group of 40–59 years, 39 in the age group of 60–80years, and 13 in 20–39 years. All six cases of adenocarcinoma were seen in 40–59 years. 96 presented with white discharge,68 with bleeding per vagina, and 58 had constitutional symptoms. Most of the patients with adenocarcinoma presented withbleeding per vagina. 98 were in Stage 3B, 40 in Stage 2B, 5 in 4A, and 7 in Stage 1B.Conclusions: Screening of cervical cancer must be done in women with white discharge per vagina.
