Abstract

Objectives: To Determine the frequency of different types of female genital tract neoplasia in our local population
of KPK, Pakistan METHODS: This retrospective study was carried out between January 1, 2014, and December
31, 2018. The information was gathered from the pathology lab's histopathological records at Peshawar Medical
College and North West General Hospital in Peshawar. The SPSS 19.0 program was used to record and analyse
all pertinent data. RESULTS: This study comprised 1039 female patient cases across all age groups. The most
often impacted organ was the uterus (83.6%), which was followed by the ovary and fallopian tube. Leiomyoma
was the most prevalent benign neoplasia lesion, followed by endometrial polyps, whereas endometrial carcinoma
was the most common malignant neoplasm. Ninety-one instances were malignant, while 948 were benign. The
age range of 41 to 50 had the highest frequency of neoplasia. Peshawar reported the highest number of cases
(33%). CONCLUSION: The most frequent benign tumour in the female genital tract, according to our data, is
leiomyoma, whereas the most prevalent malignant tumour in our community is ovarian cancer. The study's
findings indicate that incidence rises with age.
