Abstract

Introduction: The aim of the study was to asses clinicopathological profile of breast lesions at tertiary care center. Material and Method: The study was conducted in department of pathology, JLN medical college, Ajmer. We retrieved breast biopsies received in histopathology department over a period of 18 months from January 2015 to October 2016. A total of 602 cases of breast lesions were included in the study. Results: Out of a total of 602 cases of breast lesions, most common lesions were benign 454 (75.4%) with mean age 30.15 years, followed by malignant 99(16.4%) with mean age 48.5 years and inflammatory 49 (8.1%) with mean age 32.9 years. The overall mean age of patients was 31.8 years, with a wide age range of 11–88 years. Overall the most commonly reported lesion was fibroadenoma 322(53.4%) cases, followed by infiltrating duct carcinoma 83 (13.7%) cases, mastitis 45(7.4%) cases, gynecomastia 39(6.4%) and fibrocystic disease 37 (6.1%) cases. The maximum cases of malignancy were seen in 41- 50 years of age of life. Most common malignant lesion was infiltrating duct carcinoma. Conclusion: The breast lesions pattern revealed by the present study provides valuable information regarding clinicopathological profile of breast lesions.
