Carcinoma
MONDO:0004993A malignant tumor arising from epithelial cells. Carcinomas that arise from glandular epithelium are called adenocarcinomas, those that arise from squamous epithelium are called squamous cell carcinomas, and those that arise from transitional epithelium are called transitional cell carcinomas. Morphologically, the malignant epithelial cells may display abnormal mitotic figures, anaplasia, and necrosis. Carcinomas are graded by the degree of cellular differentiation as well, moderately, or poorly differentiated. Carcinomas invade the surrounding tissues and tend to metastasize to other anatomic sites. Lung carcinoma, skin carcinoma, breast carcinoma, colon carcinoma, and prostate carcinoma are the most frequently seen carcinomas.
Also known as: epithelioma, Other carcinoma, carcinoma, carcinoma, malignant, epithelial carcinoma, epithelioma malignant, malignant epithelial neoplasm, malignant epithelial tumor

Can a Three-Drug cocktail before surgery stop small cell lung cancer from returning?
Cure Recruiting nowResearchers are testing whether giving adebrelimab, apatinib mesylate, and chemotherapy before surgery helps people with limited-stage small cell lung cancer. The study enrolls adults with early-stage disease that surgeons can remove. Participants receive the drug combination for…
