Introduction: Endometrium being a dynamic tissue undergoes
physiologic and morphologic changes in response to hormones
produced in ovary. Various patterns of subtle ovarian changes is
related to morphologic alterations in endometrium. Objective: To
correlate histopathological features of endometrium with those of
ovarian pathology in hysterectomy with salphingo-oophorectomy
specimens. Materials and methods: It was a retrospective study
of hysterectomy with salpingo-oophorectomy specimens from
January 2017 to June 2018. Histopathology slides were reviewed
and findings were documented. Various histopathological patterns
in endometrium and corresponding ovarian histopathological
features were documented, categorized and analyzed. Results: One
hundred and forty-three cases were analyzed. Endometrium showed
proliferative phase in 47 cases (32.87%) and constituted the most
common pattern. Right ovary was examined in 134 cases. Left ovary
was examined in 114 cases. Both the ovaries showed corpus albicans
as the most common non-neoplastic finding. Right ovary showed
benign serous cystadenoma [3.73%] as the most common neoplastic
lesion. Left ovary showed benign cystic teratoma [2.63%] as the most
common neoplastic lesion. Conclusion: Histopathological changes
in ovary and endometrium are complimentary. Ovarian tissue
findings may reflect histopathological patterns of endometrium.
