Benign epithelial tumours LP 8
Morfology of neoplasms • Abnormal tissue proliferation – The neoplasms are no concordant with nearby tissue – persistent. and continue to proliferate after the ceasing of the stimulus • Tumour classification – hystogenetic criteria • epiteliale • conjunctive – Evolutive criteria • benign • malignant
The benign epithelial tumours • origin in the epithelial tissues • Papilloma: benign epithelial tumour that is formed by papillar structures composed of proliferated epithelium disposed on a connective-vascular core.
• Adenoma: is a benign epithelial tumour that originate in the glandular epithelium of cavitary organs and exocrine or endocrine parenchyma.
• Microscopically Squamocellular papilloma Adenomatous polyp Fibroadenoma of breast
Papiloma Scuamocelular papiloma - skin • origin – epidermis • prominent vegetant tumours of the skin • The tumoral proliferation of epidermis is disposed on a connective-vascular core with the role of nutrition and supporting
Scuamocelular papiloma - skin •The epidermis keeps the normal stratification: •a basal layer stratum spinosum (hyperacanthosis) granular layer - hypergranulosis •stratum corneum (hyperkaratosis)
•The basal membrane between the proliferated epidermis and the connective-vascular core is intact.
Fibroadenoma of breast • Is a benign mixed tumour hormonodependent (hiperestrogenism) formed by two components Epithelial component – proliferation of the ductular epithelium Connective component – fibroblasts proliferation
• The tumour is nodular, enncapsulated included in the
Fibroadenoma • There are two histologic variants: pericanalicular – the connective tissue proliferates arround the ductular lumen keeping the lumen open intracanalicular – connective tissue proliferates and compress the ductular lumen which become as a slit
• The two histologic types can coexist in the same tumour
Adenomatous polyp • Vegetant tumour, that results from the proliferation of the surface and glandular epithelium • The tumouris composed from vili sustained by a branching connectivevascular core With the role of support and nutrition Contains numerous glands limited by a displastic epithelium
