background:Development Of Flexible Colonoscope Has Played An Important Role In Detecting Colonic Lesions

Material and Methods: This was a retrospective study of all colonoscopic biopsies recieved at Department Of Pathology in a tertiary care hospital over a period of one year i.e from January 2017 to December 2017.

Results: A total of 64 colonic biopsies received were analysed during the study period. Among 64 biopsies 46 (71.8%) were non neoplastic lesions while 18(28.1%) constituted neoplastic lesions.  Chronic Nonspecific Colitis was the commonest finding constituting 24 cases (52%). Among the Neoplastic Benign lesions  polyps were observed in 6 cases constituting 33%. Adenocarcinoma was present in 12 biopsies constituting 66.6% of Malignant lesions.

Conclusion:Detection of various lesions can be done at early stage and treated with advancements in flexible colonoscopy
