Abstrakt: Background: Ovary is the commonest site of neoplastic and non-neoplastic lesion, can present in childhood to postmenopausal age group and accounts for the most prevalent cause of hospital admissions. Aim: This study was done to analyse the frequency of ovarian lesions their clinico-histological features in a rural set up. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective study of 145 ovarian lesions at tertiary care hospital over a period of 3yr. All the relevant clinical data of patients analysed from hospital record file. Results: The total number of ovarian lesions studied during study period was 145 cases, amongst them 75 were non-neoplastic and remaining 70 were neoplastic. The most common non-neoplastic lesion seen was solitary follicular cysts i.e. 56 cases (74.66%), followed by corpus luteal cysts 15 cases (20%). Among the 70 neoplastic ovarian lesions 55(78.57%) cases were benign, 1(1.42%) case was at borderline and 14 (20%) cases were malignant. In benign ovarian neoplasm, most commonly seen lesion were serous cystadenoma followed by benign cystic teratoma. In malignant cases, maximum were of serous cystadenocarcinoma, followed by mucinous cystadenocarcinoma and metastatic tumours. Conclusion: Ovarian lesion possess wide gamut of histology. Specific diagnoses are made on routine gross and histological examination or in certain difficult cases require immunohistochemistry. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
