Mean Micronuclei Score in Fine-Needle Aspiration Cytology of Patients with Malignant Breast Lump in the Department of Pathology in a Tertiary Care Centre: A Descriptive Cross-sectional Study.

Introduction: Micronucleus is used as a biomarker of chromosomal instability, which is one of the hallmarks of neoplastic transformation. As micronuclei score increases with malignancy, it can be an effective and inexpensive adjunct to breast fine needle aspiration cytology, in diagnosing breast lumps, especially detecting grey lesions between benign and malignant tumours. The aim of this study is to find out the mean micronuclei score in fine-needle aspiration cytology of patients with malignant breast lumps in the Department of Pathology in a tertiary care centre.

Vulval Aggressive Angiomyxoma in a 19 year teenager: a case report.

Background: Aggressive Angiomyxoma is a benign, slowly growing, locally aggressive and recurrent tumour that occurs in the pelvic-perineal region of females in their reproductive years. It presents as a painless, soft, gelatinous mass and metastasizes rarely. Suspicion can be made based on clinical examination and radiological imaging but final diagnosis is confirmed only after histopathology and immunohistochemistry.

Plasmablastic lymphoma of the colon in HIV negative patient; a case report with literature review.

Introduction: Plasmablastic lymphoma (PBL) is a rare and aggressive variant of diffuse large B cell lymphoma characterized by weak or absent expression of conventional B cell markers and strong expression of plasma cell markers. Very few cases of PBL of the colon have been reported in HIV negative patients.

Case Presentation: A 57 years female with HIV negative serology, a known case of hypertension under medication presented with right lower abdominal pain associated with vomiting and significant weight loss.

Subconjunctival Mass as Rare Presentation of Even Rarer Intraocular Medulloepithelioma: A Case Report.

Medulloepithelioma is a rare childhood embryonal tumor arising from the non-pigmented ciliary epithelium of the pars plicata. We report a case of an 11-year-old male who presented with painless loss of vision of the right eye for the last three years and progressively increasing mass on the superior aspect of the globe for the last three months. On ocular examination, a firm, non-tender mass of 4cm x 3cm was noted in the superior aspect of the globe.

Tumor to Tumor Metastasis: A Case Report.

Colon carcinoma spreads locally around the intestine wall and can undergo distant metastasis via the hematogenous or lymphatic spread. It rarely metastasizes to the female genital tract and is not fully reported to involve a uterine leiomyoma. Herein we report such an unusual case of a 27 years female a known case of sigmoid colon adenocarcinoma who presented with abdominal pain with bilateral adnexal mass and per vaginal bleeding.

Prevalence of Iron Deficiency Anemia in Biochemically Defined Moderate to Severely Anemic patients in a Tertiary Care Centre.

Introduction: Anemia due to iron deficiency and chronic diseases is common occurrence in developing country like Nepal, the latter seen in patients with various inflammatory, autoimmune, and malignant disorders . The Intensive method of marrow iron examination, which this study has employed, provides clinically useful iron status classification in cases of functional iron deficiency. The aim of the study is to find out the prevalence of iron deficiency anemia in biochemically defined moderate to severe anemic patients in tertiary care center.

IMFT of the sigmoid colon: a case report.

Inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor (IMFT) of the colon is a very rare entity, characterized by proliferation of myofibroblast cells admixed with inflammatory infiltrates. The entity was first described in the late 1990s, and since then less than 30 cases have been described. It frequently mimics other neoplasm of the colon, such as adenocarcinoma, lymphoma and stromal tumor, and is very difficult to clinch the diagnosis preoperatively based on the clinical and radiological findings.

Leiomyosarcoma of the Inferior Venacava: A Case Report.

Leiomyosarcoma of inferior venacava is a rare tumor. Female are most commonly affected and middle segment of inferior vena cava is the commonest site. The diagnosis can sometimes be challenging as patients present with non-specific symptoms.

Histopathological Review of Diagnostic Categories of the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology - An Institutional Experience of 5 Years.

Context: Fine needle aspiration (FNA) plays a crucial role in the evaluation of patients with thyroid lesions. The Bethesda system for reporting thyroid cytopathology (TBSRTC) was designed with a mission to standardize the process of diagnosis and management of thyroid lesions by FNA cytology (FNAC).

Aim: We aim to see the benefits of adopting TBSRTC, seek the cytological pitfalls in the diagnosis of thyroid FNAC, and identify the spectrum of thyroid lesions in our setup.

Pattern of glomerular disease and clinicopathological correlation: A single-center study from Eastern Nepal.

The pattern of glomerular disease varies worldwide. In the absence of kidney disease/kidney biopsy registry in Nepal, the exact etiology of different forms of glomerular disease is primarily unknown in our country. We analyzed 175 cases of renal biopsies performed from September 2014 to August 2016 in Internal Medicine Ward at B.

Accuracy of Frozen Section with Histopathological Report in an Institute.

Introduction: Frozen section helps in rapid intra-operative diagnosis. It is commonly used during surgical procedures to detect malignancy so that modifications of surgery can be decided at the time of surgery on the table. Frozen section is also performed for evaluation of surgical margins and detection of lymph node metastasis.
