Tumor Nomenclature Lecture Objectives

  • Define neoplasia, and explain what makes a neoplastic cell

different from a non-neoplastic cell.

  • List several characteristics of benign and malignant tumors.
  • Describe the one feature that can always be used to tell

apart benign and malignant tumors.

  • Explain how benign tumors are named.
  • Explain how malignant tumors are named.
  • List some malignant tumors that sound benign, and define

hamartoma and choristoma.

  • Memorize (sorry!) the tumor names in the chart at the end
  • f this lecture.

  • To understand patients better
  • To understand oral neoplasms better
  • To nail the neoplasia questions on boards
  • This lecture covers:
  • the nature of benign and malignant neoplasms
  • how neoplasms start and grow
  • Later lectures will cover:
  • the nature of specific neoplasms
  • how these neoplasms affect the patient

Why do we need a lecture about neoplasia?

The only indisputable quality of malignancy is Benign tumors CANNOT metastasize; malignant tumors CAN.

metastasis!

If it is metastatic, it MUST BE malignant.

Benign Tumors

Usually designated by adding “-oma” to cell type

  • adenoma: benign tumor of glandular cells
  • leiomyoma: benign tumor of smooth muscle cells
  • chondroma: benign tumor of chondrocytes

Other benign tumor names

  • papilloma: has finger-like projections
  • polyp: projects upward, forming a lump
  • cystadenoma: has hollow spaces (cysts) inside

Malignant Tumors

Carcinomas arise in epithelial tissue

  • adenocarcinoma: malignant tumor of glandular cells
  • squamous cell carcinoma: malignant tumor of

squamous cells Sarcomas arise in mesenchymal tissue

  • chondrosarcoma: malignant tumor of chondrocytes
  • angiosarcoma: malignant tumor of blood vessels
  • rhabdomyosarcoma: malignant tumor of skeletal

muscle cells

Mixed Tumors

  • pleomorphic adenoma: glands + fibromyxoid stroma
  • fibroadenoma: glands + fibrous tissue

Mixed tumors contain two or more different types of cells.

Confusing Terms

Malignant tumors that sound benign

  • lymphoma
  • mesothelioma
  • melanoma
  • seminoma

Non-tumors that sound like tumors

  • hamartoma: mass of disorganized indigenous tissue
  • choristoma: heterotopic rest of cells

Names that seem to come out of nowhere

  • nevus
  • leukemia
  • hydatidiform mole
