Background: For centuries, the female reproductive system has been affected by various abnormalities and diseases and hence has been the subject of interest and the basis for the gynaecological practice. The uterus being a vital reproductive and hormone-responsive organ, is subjected to a variety of physiological changes and benign and malignant disorders. Aims and Objectives: To study the indications of hysterectomy, to study gross and histopathological features of uterus and cervix in hysterectomy specimens and correlate with clinical findings. Material and Methods: This was a descriptive study of the gross and histopathological findings of uterus and cervix in 150 hysterectomy specimens received in the department. The hysterectomy specimens received were fixed in 10% formalin for 24 hours, were examined grossly and necessary sections were obtained. The tissue pieces were then processed in automated tissue processor, well labelled paraffin blocks were made. Approximately 2-3μ thickness sections were cut with the help of microtome and were stained routinely by Hematoxylin & Eosin stain and special stains like PAS or other were used wherever necessary. The histopathological findings of uterus and cervix were noted and these findings were then correlated with clinical diagnosis. Results: Overall clinicopathological correlation was noted in all 150 cases. In cases of uterine fibroid it was 69.7% and 100% in case of endometrial carcinoma and cervical dysplasia. Most common pathology found was uterine leiomyomas in 48 cases and next to it was adenomyosis in 30 cases. Conclusion: It can be concluded that clinico-pathological correlation in case of endometrial cancer and uterine fibroid is excellent, but in case of DUB and prolapse uterus it varies. This signifies the importance of clinico-pathological correlation in all cases of hysterectomy to improve the clinical outcome and post-operative management.Keywords

Background: Thyroid gland is the first endocrine gland to develop, largest of all endocrine glands. Superficial location of thyroid gland allows evaluation of thyroid lesions by FNAC (fine needle aspiration cytology). Aims and Objective: To study cytological profile of thyroid lesions and correlate the results with Ultrasonography findings and clinical features. Material and Methods: This prospective study was carried out on 138 patients who came to the department from period of May 2012 to December 2014. Out of these 138 patients USG was carried out in 115 patients. FNAC of patients was performed and results of FNAC were correlated with those of USG reports and clinical features of the patient. Results: Out of 138 cases 83 (60.1%) cases were benign, 18(13.0%) cases were inflammatory, 2 (1.4%) cases were malignant, 28 (20.3%) were categorised as indeterminate, and 7 (5.1%) cases were inadequate. All the 2 malignant cases were given as neoplastic on USG. Conclusion: FNAC is the main diagnostic modality of choice for thyroid lesions, along with Ultrasonography and clinical examination it helps to come to the proper diagnosis.Keywords

Every coin has two faces; similarly an education degree has two facets - Theory and Practice. We all toss coin at every phase of life, as a student, as a professional and as Employers. Every student joins a business school with confidence to excel in practical world and gain professional knowledge. As the current business environment is ever changing and demanding, Students and Business Schools are required to keep themselves abreast with the latest developments in the business world. Business Cenfers today not only insist for technical knowledge of the individuals being hired but focus more on professional development of the candidates being selected. Studies have proved that there exists a huge gap in the 'Professional Quality' of individuals developed by the Business Schools and what is expected by the Industries. To bridge this increasing gap of professional capabilities of students and industry expectations, Business Schools today should introduce innovative training methods and create a replica of 'Global village' within class rooms. Business Schools need to excel not only in Teaching, Learning, and Research but also in overall Professional Development of the students.
Professional Development is an active and continuous process of self-appraisal, review and planning of professional and personal development. Activities like Targeted Work, People Management Skills and Soft Skills, Training programs. Corporate Interaction, e-learning. Live Projects are part of professional development, which should be incorporated by Business Schools. This paper makes an attempt to analyze the current imbalance between theory and practice with reference to professional development.
