Lymphangioma Lymphangioma is often formed during fetal development because of a blockage and subsequent tangling in your lymphatic system. Your lymphatic system is an important part of your immune system which is where the bacteria and any other foreign substances are destroyed.

Colorectal Cancer Hodgkin's lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system, which is part of the immune system. The disease causes cells in the lymphatic system to grow abnormally and sometimes spreads beyond the lymphatic system, which includes the lymph nodes.

Lymphangioma Nodules in cavernous lymphangioma are characterized by large, irregular channels in the reticular dermis and subcutaneous tissue that are lined by a single layer of endothelial cells. An incomplete layer of smooth muscle often lines the walls of these malformed channels.

Angioma Angiomas are benign tumors derived from cells of the vascular or lymphatic vessel walls (endothelium) or derived from cells of the tissues surrounding these vessels. Angiomas are a frequent occurrence as patients age, but they might be an indicator of systemic problems such as liver disease. They are not commonly associated with malignancy.

- A spinal hemangioma is a tumor that mostly occurs in the thoracic and the lumbar spine. Also referred to as vertebral hemangioma, it is non-cancerous and has few symptoms. This is why most people do not realize that they have this condition unless an imaging test for another condition reveals its presence.

Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma Lymphoma is a cancer of the lymphatic system.Your lymphatic system is made up of a type of white blood cell.This is called a lymphocyte. It is located in your lymph nodes, spleen, tonsils and bone marrow (where blood cells are manufactured).

Glossary of HIV/AIDS-related Terms: Lymphoma is cancer that begins in infection-fighting cells of the immune system, called lymphocytes. These cells are in the lymph nodes, spleen, thymus, bone marrow, and other parts of the body. When you have lymphoma, lymphocytes change and grow out of control. There are two main types of lymphoma:

Lymphoma Lymphoma is a type of cancer involving cells of the immune system, called lymphocytes. Just as cancer represents many different diseases, lymphoma represents many different cancers of lymphocytes -- about 35 different subtypes, in fact.

Meningiomas A meningioma is a tumor that grows from the dura covering of the brain and spinal cord. Meningiomas are named according to their location. Meningiomas are classified by their cell type and grade by viewing the cells taken during a biopsy under a microscope. Treatment varies depending on the grade of the meningioma.

Meningioma Brain Tumor MRI image showing a typical meningioma tumor. A meningioma is a tumor that arises from a layer of tissue (the meninges) that covers the brain and spine. Meningiomas grow on the surface of the brain (or spinal cord), and therefore push the brain away rather than growing from within it. Most are considered “benign” because they are slow-growing with low potential to spread.

Overview A meningioma is a tumor that arises from the meninges — the membranes that surround your brain and spinal cord. Most meningiomas are noncancerous (benign), though rarely a meningioma may be cancerous (malignant).

âMeningioma A meningioma is a tumor of the protective linings of the brain and spinal cord. These linings are called meninges. Most meningiomas are benign, though some may be cancerous. Benign meningioma tumors are generally slow growing. They usually don't cause problems unless they are pushing on the brainstem and/or compressing structures such as optic and cranial nerves.

How many more chemical elements are there for us to find? But many of the elements in the periodic table are instead made in the intense environment of an exploding star or supernova. The enormous energies released can produce new kinds of fusion as atoms crash into one another, producing elements as heavy as uranium, with its 92 protons.

Hemangioma A hemangioma is an abnormal buildup of blood vessels in the skin or internal organs. 1  Hemangioblastoma: These tumors are benign, slow-growing, and well defined. They arise from cells in the linings of blood vessels.  Hemangiopericytoma: These are rare, grade II or III tumors.

Lymph node A lymph node is an oval-shaped organ of the lymphatic system, distributed widely throughout the body including the armpit and stomach and linked by lymphatic vessels.ymph nodes are bean or oval shaped and range in size from a few millimeters to about 1–2 cm long. Each lymph node is surrounded by a fibrous capsule, and inside the lymph node the fibrous capsule extends to form trabeculae.

Malignant Lymphoma What is malignant lymphoma? Cancers that start anywhere in the body’s lymphatic system are called lymphomas. If they have the ability to spread, they are called malignant.

Lymphoma Lymphoma is a general name for a group of cancers of the blood that originate in the lymph glands. The lymph glands are organs of the immune system and are part of the body’s defense against infection and disease.

- A hemangioma is a benign (noncancerous) tumor made up of blood vessels. There are many types of hemangiomas, and they can occur throughout the body, including in skin, muscle, bone, and internal organs.Most hemangiomas occur on the surface of the skin or just beneath it.iopsy. It may be difficult to distinguish hemangiomas from other tumors, and a biopsy is sometimes necessary to confirm a diagnosis of hemangioma. In a biopsy, a tissue sample of the tumor is taken and examined under a microscope.

lymphangioma cystic lymphangioma (lymphangioma cys´ticum) cystic hygroma. simple lymphangioma (lymphangioma sim´plex) one composed of small lymphatic channels that occurs subcutaneously in the head and neck region, in the axilla, and sometimes in internal organs. Superficial lesions are slightly raised or sometimes nodular; deeper lesions are sharply circumscribed, compressible, and gray to pink in color.
