Shwetha Jose

Abstract :

 

Objective: Many studies have been done and published on spectrum of east lesions. There is a wide variation in the spectrum of east diseases and the epidemiology of east carcinoma in various countries or ethnic groups. The present study was done to know the spectrum of east lesions in Sree Narayana Institute of Medical Sciences, Chalakka, North Paravur.

Materials and method: It is a retrospective study performed at Sree Narayana Institute of Medical Sciences, Chalakka, North Paravur over a period of 3 years from January 2014 to January 2017. During the period, a total of 50 east specimens were received in the department of pathology. Histopathological examination of specimens was done to know the spectrum of east lesions.

Results: All the patients were female. Age of the patients ranges from 10 to 80 years with the mean age of 34.8 years. Out of 50 patients, incidence of benign east disease (76%) was found to be more than malignant disease (16%). The commonest benign east disease was Fioadenoma (36%) followed by fiocystic disease (12%). Invasive ductal carcinoma was commonest malignant lesion we studied (12%). Mastitis with abscess was commonest among inflammatory lesions (4%).

Conclusion: Results of the present study were comparable with many other similar studies done in the past however we suggest the formation of larger series to achieve better result about the spectrum and burden of east disease thereby benefitting public health.
