What Are the Different Types and Treatments of Neoplasms?

3. Neoplasms vs. Cysts

Neoplasms are sometimes classified as neutral tumors until tested. Similar to in situ neoplasms, primary neoplasms grow in the same place, but usually yield cancerous masses. By contrast, a secondary neoplasm indicates the growth has spread from the original site. Most cancers are classified as malignant neoplastic diseases that render neoplasms. Cysts can be large or small, but most are soft masses caused by infected or blocked ducts. Most cysts are benign, but some harbor cancerous growths.
