Hemorrhage
tumors probably have destroyed and weakened many blood vessels in the areas of the tumors, therefore you should be aware that increased pressure that accompanies arterial injection can result in additional ruptures.

Yes
can the terms tumor and neoplasm be used interchangeably?
Lymph
carcinomas is spread by way of _______?
Adenocarcinoma
derived from glandular tissue, found in the uterus, breast, cervix, alimentary tract, and the lungs.
Squamous Cell Carcinoma
derived from stratified epithelial tissue, most commonly found on the skin, lungs, lips, mouth, larynx, esophagus, vagina, prostate, anus, and cervix.
Emaciation
due to chronic, long term nature of most cancers, many patients lose a great deal of weight (body mass).
Malignant
is Giloma benign or malignant.
Sebaceous Cysts
is a retention cyst (one caused by blockage of the excretory duct so that the glandular material is retained, containing a cheesy yellow material usually on the face, neck, scalp, or trunk.
Hyperplasia
is an increase in the size of a body part due to an increase in the number of cells in that organ.

refers to a state of general ill health, malnutrition, and wasting away.
Cysts
sac-like structures containing fluid, semi-fluid, or solid material. They may be small or large.
Blood
sarcomas spread by way of _______?
Metastasis
the ability of tumors to spread, either by way of blood or lymph, and set up a secondary location.
Malignant
the cells of this tumor bear resemblance to tissues from which they develop.
Benign
the cells of this tumor closely resemble cells of tissue from which they develop.
Carcinogenesis
the process of the formation and development of a cancer.
Oncology
the study of neoplasms or tumors.
Malignant
these tumors are lethal unless treated.
Extravascular Obstructions
this holds for both benign and malignant tumors. These tumors may put pressure on blood vessels causing them to become partially or totally occluded (blocked) resulting in poor fluid distribution.
Benign
this tumor develops by expansive growth (from the center of the tumor, pushing surronding tissues aside without invading them)
Clinical
this type of classification is based upon the behavioral charectoristics of the tumor.
Malignant
this type of tissue causes total body changes.
Malignant
this type of tumor causes extensive tissue damage.
Malignant
this type of tumor develops by infiltrate growth (from the periphery of the tumor in slender strands that invade surronding tissues and may break off to be spread to other parts of the body or lymph.)
Benign
this type of tumor does not recur after excision.
