what is a neoplasia?

Answer 1

It's abnormal cell growth in tissue or in an organ. It generally results in a lump or a mass that is called a tumor. These can be either cancerous (malignant) or benign. Generally the cells that are growing abnormally are similar to the cells of the organ or tissue it is growing in unless it is a metastasized or secondary tumor. In that case you may have liver cells from the primary tumor site growing on your lungs as their secondary site.

Answer 2
