description Background Skin diseases are frequently encountered among the health problems in a developing country like India.The heterogeneity of clinical presentation and diversity in the spectrum of skin lesions makes histopathological examination imperative. A complete correlation between clinical presentation and history provides a clue to arrive at the final diagnosis and also improves the diagnostic specificity of skin lesions. Therefore, the present study was conducted with the objectives of categorizing the patterns of skin lesions into eight groups (I-VIII) based on the final histopathological diagnoses, to evaluate the concordance index of clinical and histopathological diagnoses in each group, to study the frequency distribution of cases according to age, sex, site of involvement and morphology of lesions and to list out the various patterns of skin lesions in all the eight groups (I-VIII).
