This term literally means “new growth”.
Neoplasia(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.174
An abnormal mass of tissue the growth of which exceeds and is uncoordinated with that of the normal tissues and persists in the same excessive manner after the cessation of stimuli which evoked the change.
Neoplasm(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.174

Malignant(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.174
What are the two basic components of tumors?
Parenchyma and Stroma(TOPNOTCH)
Benign or malignant?Metastasis
Malignant(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.174
This component of tumors largely determines its biologic behavior.
Parenchyma(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.174
This component of tumors determines the name of the growth.
Parenchyma(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.174
This component of tumors is crucial to the growth of neoplasms since it carries the blood supply and provides support to the growth of cells.

Chondroma(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.175
This is a benign epithelial neoplasm which produces glandular patterns or neoplasms derived from glands but not necessarily exhibit glandular patterns
Adenoma(TOPNOTCH)Robbins Basic Pathology, 8th Ed p.175
These are benign epithelial neoplasms, growing on any surface that produce microscopic or macroscopic finger-like fronds.
