Phyllodes tumors are part of a group of breast diseases called cellular fibroepithelial lesions. [8] This term incorporates a spectrum of diseases ranging from a benign fibroadenoma to a malignant phyllodes tumor, with numerous variants in between. [14] They are classified by ICD-O, not by MeSH. [14]
A fibroepithelial neoplasm (or tumor) is a biphasic tumor. They consist of epithelial tissue, and stromal or mesenchymal tissue. They may be benign or malignant. [1] Examples include: Brenner tumor of the ovary; Fibroadenoma of the breast; Phyllodes tumor of the breast; Sometimes fibroepithelial polyps (FEPs) of the vulva may be misdiagnosed as ...
Fibroadenoma of the breast is a benign tumor composed of a biplastic proliferation of both stromal and epithelial components. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] This biplasia can be arranged in two growth patterns: pericanalicular (stromal proliferation around epithelial structures) and intracanalicular (stromal proliferation compressing the epithelial structures ...
At just 19 years old, Eldiara Doucette — known on social media as "Bionic Barbie" — was diagnosed with synovial sarcoma, a rare form of soft tissue cancer that affects only 1,000 people per ...
Stromal cells, or mesenchymal stromal cells, are differentiating cells found in abundance within bone marrow but can also be seen all around the body. Stromal cells can become connective tissue cells of any organ , for example in the uterine mucosa ( endometrium ), prostate , bone marrow , lymph node and the ovary .
Neoplasia is the medical term used for both benign and malignant tumors, or any abnormal, excessive, uncoordinated, and autonomous cellular or tissue growth. Desmoplastic reaction to breast cancer Desmoplasia refers to growth of dense connective tissue or stroma . [ 2 ]
Cellular angiofibroma, an angiofibroma that is a benign, usually small, slow-growing tumor arising in the groin, scrotal or vulva regions. [ 15 ] Angiofibroma of soft tissue , also termed angiofibroma NOS (NOS indicates N ot O therwise S pecified), an angiofibroma that develops in the extremities, particularly around or in the large joints.
Clear cell sarcoma is a sub-type of a rare form of cancer called a sarcoma. [1] It is known to occur mainly in the soft tissues and dermis.Rare forms were thought to occur in the gastrointestinal tract before they were discovered to be different and redesignated as gastrointestinal neuroectodermal tumors.
