Neoplasms
Neoplasms are abnormal or uncontrolled growths of tissue that develop in the body and are typically benign or malignant, meaning they are not normal or healthy. Neoplasms can occur in any organ and typically contain cells that have mutated and began to multiply rapidly. They can potentially cause harm to the body, depending on the type and size, and can lead to various health complications, such as pain and tissue damage. The most common treatments for neoplasms include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation and targeted therapy. Early detection and treatment can help reduce the risk and improve the prognosis for those diagnosed with a neoplasm.
