Aims and Objectives: Hysterectomy is one of the common surgical procedures throughout the world .The objective of the study was to analyze and study the frequency of histopathological lesions in hysterectomy specimens. Materials and methods: This retrospective study was performed in pathology department at tertiary care centre from January 2015 to December 2015.Total 305 hysterectomy specimen were analyzed for histopathological lesions. Obstetrical hysterectomy specimens were excluded from the study. Results: A total 306 hysterectomy specimens were reported during the period of one year. Of these 288 hysterectomy were performed abdominally (94.4%) and 17 vaginally (5.6%) for prolapse. Most common lesion was chronic cervicitis in 101 cases (33%) followed by leiomyomas in 91 specimens (30.3%). Other histological lesions were adenomyosis in 11 specimens (11.4%) simple glandular hyperplasia (8.8%), complex hyperplasia and inflammatory lesions of endometrium and fallopian tube.
