The conjunctiva is a thin and flexible mucus membrane that provides a protective barrier to the eye. Very few histopathologic studies have been conducted on conjunctival biopsies in eastern India.
120 conjunctival biopsies from 117 patients (76 males, 41 females) received during 8 years (January 2003-December 2010) were included in this study.
HISTOLOGIC DIAGNOSES WERE: degenerative lesions in 38 cases (31.66%), benign epithelial lesions in 23 cases (19.16%), premalignant and malignant epithelial lesions in 27 cases (22.5%), melanocytic lesions in 10 cases (8.33%), lymphoid in 7 cases (5.83%), and miscellaneous in 15 cases (12.5%).
Squamous papilloma was the commonest benign tumor, whereas the commonest malignant tumor was squamous cell carcinoma. Melanocytic lesions were less prevalent compared to other/western studies.
结膜是一层薄而柔韧的黏膜,为眼睛提供保护屏障。在印度东部,针对结膜活检的组织病理学研究极少。
本研究纳入了2003年1月至2010年12月这8年间接收的117例患者(76例男性,41例女性)的120份结膜活检样本。
组织学诊断结果为:退行性病变38例(31.66%),良性上皮病变23例(19.16%),癌前及恶性上皮病变27例(22.5%),黑素细胞病变10例(8.33%),淋巴样病变7例(5.83%),其他病变15例(12.5%)。
鳞状乳头瘤是最常见的良性肿瘤,而最常见的恶性肿瘤是鳞状细胞癌。与其他/西方研究相比,黑素细胞病变的发生率较低。
