Abstract
Patients who were symptomatic attended the gynecology OPD of RMMCH with complaints of white discharge; irregular menstrual bleeding, postmenopausal bleeding and post coital bleeding between Dec 2003 to June 2005 were included in this study. All these patients were subjected to routine tests and also PAP smears were taken and also coloposcopy biopsy was done where ever required. Later the clinico-histopathological correlation was done and compared with other studies.
Aims and Objectives: The present study was undertaken to evaluate the clinico-histopathological pattern in symptomatic women aged 21yrs and above attending the gynecology OPD of RMMCH with complaints of white discharge, irregular menstrual bleeding, postmenopausal bleeding and post coital bleeding between Dec 2003 to June 2005 were included in this study. Clinical features and histopathological examination were studied.
