Scope note: Neoplasia verdadera constituida por un número variable de tejidos diferentes, impropios del lugar donde se desarrolla. Está compueto de tejidos que proceden de las tres capas germinales, el endodermo, mesodermo y ectodermo. Se clasifican histológicamente en maduros (benignos) e inmaduros (malignos).

Scope note: A true neoplasm composed of a number of different types of tissue, none of which is native to the area in which it occurs. It is composed of tissues that are derived from three germinal layers, the endoderm, mesoderm, and ectoderm. They are classified histologically as mature (benign) or immature (malignant). (From DeVita Jr et al., Cancer: Principles & Practice of Oncology, 3d ed, p1642)
