-“neo-plasm” is an abnormal growth of ’tissue’, and – when it also forms a mass – is commonly referred to as a tumor

.

(this abnormal growth (‘neoplasia’) usually but not always forms a ‘mass’)

(how can something ‘grow’ without creating more ‘mass’?)
(you do the math)
(you tell me)
(get back to me on that)
(good luck!)

(the ‘World Health Organization’ (WHO) classifies neoplasms into ‘four main groups’: ‘benign neoplasms’, ‘in situ neoplasms’, ‘malignant neoplasms’, and ‘neoplasms of uncertain or unknown behavior’)

(‘malignant neoplasms’ are also simply known as ‘cancers’)

(prior to the abnormal growth of tissue, as ‘neoplasia’, cells often undergo an abnormal pattern of growth, such as ‘metaplasia’ or ‘dysplasia’)

(however, ‘metaplasia’ or ‘dysplasia’ does not always progress to ‘neoplasia’)

(the word is from ‘ancient greek’ νέος- neo“new” and πλάσμα plasma “formation, creation”)
