Neoplasia: Nomenclature Flashcards
(91 cards)
Neoplasia
New growth
Neoplasm
Study of tumors or neoplasm
Oncology
Neoplasm is an abnormal mass of tissue
Premolecular era
Neoplasm is disorder of cell growth, acquired mutations affecting a single cell.
Modern era
2 basic components of tumor
Parenchyma
Reactive stroma
Connective tissue, blood vessels
Growth and spread of tumor
Reactive stroma
Biologic behavior
Parenchyma
Parenchyma stimulate formation of stroma
Desmoplasia
Lymphatic and circulatory systems
Connective tissue like bone and cartilage
Mesenchymal cells
Line major cavities of the body
Most organ such as kidney
Glands
Epithelial cells
Benign tumors
Remain localized
Not spread to other sites
Enable to local surgical removal
Benign tumors suffix in mesenchymal cells
Oma
Eg. Fibrous tissue - fibroma
Cartilage- chondroma
Benign tumors in epithelial cells
Based on cells of origin
Microscopic pattern
Macroscopic architecture
Functional parts of the organ
Parenchyma
Structural tissue of organ
Stroma
Tumor or neoplasm in epithelial cells
Epithelial neoplasm derived from glands
Adenoma
Lahat ng glands ay adenoma
Pero hindi lahat ng adenoma ay glands
Visible finger like or warty projections from epithelial surfaces (mucous membrane)
Papilloma
Large cystic masses, such as in the ovary
Cystadenomas
Macroscopically visible projection above a mucosal surface.
Polyp
Poly in glandular tissue
Adenomatous polyp
MALIGNANT TUMORS
Malignant tumors in solid mesenchymal tissue
Sarcomas
Eg. Fibrosarcoma, chondroscoma
MALIGNANT TUMORS
Blood forming cells
Leukemia- WBC
Lymphoma - lymphocytes
MALIGNANT TUMORS
Epithelial cell origin
On 3 germ layer
Carcinoma
