NEOPLASIA
Questions
• PA 7.1b Describe the characteristics of neoplasia including
gross, microscopy.
Differentiate between Benign and malignant neoplasm.
• 7.1b.1. Identify the gross and microscopy features of benign neoplasm.
• 7.1b.2. Identify the gross and microscopy features of malignant neoplasm.
Neoplasm
• Definition: A mass of tissue formed as a result of abnormal, excessive,
uncoordinated, autonomous and purposeless proliferation of cells even after
cessation of stimulus for growth which caused it.
Characteristics:
I. Rate of growth
II. Cancer phenotype and stem cells
III. Clinical and gross features
IV. Microscopic features
V. Local invasion (Direct spread)
VI. Metastasis (Distant spread)
Benign Neoplasm
Gross Morphology
Gross
• Generally spherical or ovoid in shape.
• They are encapsulated or well-circumscribed, freely movable.
• Often firm and uniform, unless secondary changes like haemorrhage
or infarction supervene.
Microscopy
• For recognising and classifying the tumours, the microscopic
characteristics of tumour cells are of greatest importance.
Features which are appreciated in histologic sections are :
• 1. Microscopic pattern
• 2. Cytomorphology of neoplastic cells (differentiation and anaplasia)
• 3. Tumour angiogenesis and stroma
• 4. Inflammatory reaction.
Microscopy
Fibroadenoma Leiomyoma
