  Abstract :

Aim: The aim of this study is to highlight the histopathological spectrum of ovarian both benign and malignant and to compare our study with findings of other centers. Materials and Methods: Hematoxylin and eosin stained slides of ovarian biopsies diagnosed at Rajendra Institute of Medical Sciences, Ranchi, Jharkhand for 3 years ( January 2016 to December 2018 ) were archived, scrutinized, and studied. Clinical biodata and diagnosis were obtained from the Histopathology section. Results: A total of 1091 ovarian biopsies were reviewed. Of this, 556 (50.96%) were nonneoplastic. Again 339 (31.08%) were benign neoplastic tumours and 196 (17.96%) were malignant tumours. Out of the 556 nonneoplastic (functional cysts) lesions, follicular cyst was the most commonly encountered, constituting 160 cases (28.78%). The peaks age incidence for nonneoplastic and benign neoplastic lesions occurred in the 3rd decade. Two peaks age incidence was noted for malignant tumors-5th and 7th decades. Germ cell tumor constituted the most common neoplastic ovarian tumour (n = 113; 57.65%) diagnosed. Conclusion: Functional ovarian cysts were the most commonly encountered ovarian lesions in our study population. The most common variety of functional cyst were follicular cyst and corpus luteum cyst with majority occurring in the reproductive age groups. Among the ovarian tumors, germ cell tumors followed by surface epithelial tumours were most commonly seen.
