Abstract

Background: Abnormal uterine bleeding is one of the signicant gynaecological complaints, often related to endometrial pathology. It is important to differentiate non neoplastic lesion from neoplastic lesions as well as early detection of precursor lesions and exclusion of malignancy.

It was a retrospective hospital based study, conducted among 200 patients in the Department of Pathology, AMCH, Dibrugarh from 1st July, 2021 to 30th June 2022.
