Benign tumor

cells become abnormal, meaning that old cells survive when they shouldn’t and new cells are formed when they are not needed. These cells grow into what is known as tumors and they can appear in almost any part of the human body. These cancerous tumors can spread or affect the nearby tissues and they are known as malignant. Therefore, tumor can spread through the body and affect as many areas as it travels through the body.…

breast tissue, fat tissue, connective tissue, arteries, nerves and veins. The function and appearance of the breasts changes with age. 1. Breast lumps are the primer and most common symptom of breast cancer. These lumps may often be confused with benign tumors and cysts. Cysts in the breast are a common occurrence. Cysts are sacks of fluid in the…

A lump or growth could be a tumor or neoplasia associated with cancer cells divided without limitation because of malfunction in gene sequence (Aly 10). Carcinogenesis is when a normal cell turns cancerous by a multistep process where DNA is damaged and sequences of mutation happen that cannot be reversed (Aly 9). Neoplasm is the growth of cells or tissue that is unusual or a tumor and there are two diverse types of tumors, benign or malignant (www.vetcancersociety.org). Many diverse…

Cancer is defined as a malignant growth or tumor resulting from the division of abnormal cells. Heart cancer is one of the many different forms of cancer that affects us and luckily is one of the rarest cancers that we don’t see everyday. For example, one study reviewed more than twelve thousands of autopsies and found only seven cases of a primary cardiac tumor. Heart cancer (primary cardiac tumor) is cancer that arises in the heart. Cancerous (malignant) tumors that begin in the heart are most…

Gastric cancer is the fourth most common cancer and the second major cause of cancer death worldwide. Early detection of gastric cancer by endoscopic surveillance is actively investigated to improve patient survival, particularly utilizing the newly developed magnifying narrow-band imaging endoscopy in the stomach. However, reviewing the endoscopic data is time consuming and obliges intense labor of profoundly experienced doctors.\\ In this work, we have proposed a method for detecting ulcer…

Cal developed cerebral palsy, hearing, as well as speech impairments. The second tragedy happened with Susan’s husband, Pat, who had a tumor at the base of the skull. His surgeon stated that it was benign. The sample was sent to a pathologist. However, the result of the pathology test was never seen by anyone. Six months after, Pat had MRI showing that he had a tumor a size of the surgeon’s fist. He died at the age of 45 (“Chasing Zero”, 2014). These errors could have been prevented if there…

innermost layer of the wall (the mucosa) and can spread outward into the other layers and beyond. The stage, or extent, of the disease (see later) depends on how far the cancer has spread. Most colorectal cancers begin as polyps. Polyps are small, benign (noncancerous) growths that form on the inner lining of the colon or rectum. Not all polyps change into cancer. Whether or not they do depends on the type of polyp. Adenomatous polyps (adenomas) are the most common type of polyp that can change…

University Abstract This research paper sheds some light on the biggest killer of the American people, lung cancer. Lung cancer is explained, statistics are given, and information about treatments of lung cancer are described. Cancer can be tumors on the lungs and could metastasize throughout the body. Lung cancer has different classifications. Classified by the location and whether or not it has spread to both lungs, lymph nodes, or other parts of the body. The two main types of…

anywhere in the body which is caused by a damaged gene that are forced to work that causes cancer cells to grow out of control. Some types of cancers grow and spread quickly throughout the body or take more time to grow. A tumor forms with most cancers, though some are benign meaning not cancerous while ones with cancer are called malignant. One form of cancer known as ovarian cancer is the one that this research paper presents information about. Ovarian cancer starts in the ovaries and the…

Among the neoplastic, benign includes 02(6.67%) cases, carcinoma in-situ – 3 (10%), and malignant cases include 25(83.33%). This depicts the higher incidence of neoplastic cases compared to the other. Of the malignant cases, invasive squamous cell carcinoma constitutes 24 cases…
