Pathology neoplasia

5. These are clinical conditions/syndromes that result when neoplastic cells release biologically active substances.
10. Quantification of the histological features of a neoplasm in order to provide a histological prognosis.
12. A benign neoplasm of glandular (secretory) epithelial cells.
13. The steps by which a normal cell is transformed into a neoplastic cell.
15. Substances or agents that produce, in exposed individuals, an incidence of neoplasia greater than that in those who are not exposed.
16. A benign neoplasm of squamous (non-secretory) epithelial cells.
17. The process by which normal somatic cells are transformed (mutated) into cells that are no longer under the control of the body in which they are growing.
18. Refers to variable morphology of the cells constituting a specific neoplasm.
20. The failure of a neoplastic cell to differentiate (mature).
21. The spread of neoplastic cells from a tumour to a distant organ/tissue.
23. A malignant neoplasm arising from a connective tissue cell.
24. A neoplasm that has the potential to metastasise.
25. These are genes that are involved in the expression of the neoplastic phenotype.
26. Sensitisation of a cell to subsequent neoplastic transformation by means of the application of a chemical carcinogen.

1. The process by which a normal cell in the body is changed into a neoplastic cell in that body.
2. A malignant neoplasm arising from an epithelial cell.
3. Application of a different chemical carcinogen to a sensitised cell, causing it to transform into a pre-neoplastic cell.
4. A neoplasm that does not metastasise.
6. The process by which a neoplasm becomes vascularised.
7. This is the establishment of a neoplasm at a new site following the release of tumour cells from a neoplasm into a body cavity.
8. An attempt to predict the future course and outcomes of a disease or disease process.
9. The spread of neoplastic cells from the tumour into the surrounding tissues.
11. Excessive production of the fibrous component of the stroma of a neoplasm.
14. A proliferative lesion composed of mutated cells no longer under the contol of the body in which they are growing. [Neoplasm = Tumour]
19. The steps in oncogenesis that lead to the transformation of a pre-neoplastic cell to a neoplastic cell.
22. An attempt to classify neoplasms according to their clinical progression.
