Clinico-Pathological Correlation of Intestinal Lesions in a Tertiary Care Hospital
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 11
Abstract
Abstract: This study was undertaken to find out clinico -pathological profile of various intestinal lesions and correlate clinico-radiological findings with tissue diagnosis on the basis of histopathological study in this institute. The materials were collected in the form of biopsy and resected specimens of intestine with relevant clinical history. All patients presenting with symptoms and signs of intestinal disease and who have undergone surgical exploration were included in the study. Appendicectomies were excluded from the study. The histopathological diagnoses were categorized as Non Neoplastic and Neoplastic Lesions. Amongst 215 cases studied of intestinal lesions, majority were Non-Neoplastic (181) including intestinal Tuberculosis cases (33) and 34 were Neoplastic. M: F ratio was 1:0.3 and Pain in abdomen was the most common symptom. Overall correlation of clinical with radiology diagnoses was seen in 149 cases out of 166 cases (89.75%). The role of pathologist in gastrointestinal oncology has greatly expanded in recent years. Evaulation of diagnostic accuracy of a modality for various pathological lesions is essential to improvise upon existing modalities and to choose pertinent, cost effective diagnostic modality for a particular clinical setting.
