Specimens obtained from eligible study population were examined grossly as well as microscopically to assess type of various morphological patterns, variations and +/- of secondary changes. Histologic grading was done by Modified Bloom and Richardson score. Results: The mean age of patients was 39.1±17.8 years with 437(96.6%) females and 17 (3.7%) males. Majority of benign lesions were of Fibroadenoma (82.8%) followed by Gynaecomastia (6.7%). Most common type of malignant carcinoma was Infiltrating ductal carcinoma (IDC) (84.5%) followed by Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) (9.7%). majority of IDC (91cases) had grade 2 followed by 8 cases had grade 1 and 2 cases had grade 3. Conclusion: This study shows the importance of diagnosing in-situ carcinomas and differentiating from invasive carcinomas. Staging of the malignant lesions is helpful in assessing the patient’s risk and tailor-made management can be provided in each case, which include local, regional and systemic management.
