Abstract
Ovary being a hormone producing organ is the commonest site of neoplastic as well as non-neoplastic lesions. The affected age may be childhood or up to postmenopausal (1,2).
The present study was done to analyse the frequency, spectrum, clinical features of ovarian non neoplastic lesions and their histopathological correlation.
This is a retrospective study of 177 ovarian lesions at tertiary care hospital over a period of 3 years. All the relevant data of patients were analysed from medical record department of TSM Medical College and Hospital, Lucknow.
The total number of non-neoplastic ovarian lesions studied during 15 July 2015 to 15 July 2018 was 177 and amongst them the most common lesion seen were functional cysts.
