Introduction: Autopsy history is intimately connected with that of anatomy and medicine in general and it remains key aspect of medicine today. Millions of people around the world and in India are affected by preventable pulmonary diseases. The clinical and radiological findings in most of the respiratory diseases are not very specific and thus to make correct and specific diagnosis histopathological examination serves as an important diagnostic tool. Objective: The aim of this study was to analyze the various lungs lesion histopathologically on lungs received after autopsy at Histology section of Department of Pathology, Gajra Raja Medical College, Gwalior during the period of 1.5 years. Method: It was a prospective study carried out on 100 specimens of Lungs received during 2021-22. All relevant histopathological details pertaining to gross and microscopic features were comprehensively studied. Result: Out of total received 100 cases, 43% of cases lungs were normal grossly and 8% of cases lungs were normal microscopically while 57% of cases lungs were diseased grossly and 92% of cases lungs were diseased microscopically. On gross examination, the most common lesion was Focal Greyish White lesions in (20%) of cases while majority of the cases (43%) were Unremarkable on gross. On microscopic examination, the most frequently found Pathological Lesion was Interstitial Pneumonitis (19.0%). Conclusion: Histopathological examination of the autopsy specimen provides the reliable evidence on the occurrence of various respiratory diseases in the population which may not have been otherwise become evident. With better insight into disease prevalence in the population, appropriate screening procedures and diagnostic tests could be introduced at appropriate time for early detection of various pathologies. Early detection may also lead to better prognostic outcome of disease. Methods could also be deployed for the prevention. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
