| Hurthle cell carcinoma | A neoplasm of the thyroid gland composed of polyhedral acidophilic cells, thought by some to be oncocytes; it may be benign or malignant, the behaviour of the latter depending on the general microscopic pattern, whether follicular, papillary, or undifferentiated. See: Hurthle cell adenoma. Synonym: Hurthle cell carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |

| signet-ring cell carcinoma | <tumour> A poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma composed of cells with a cytoplasmic droplet of mucus that compresses the nucleus to one side along the cell membrane; arises most frequently in the stomach, occasionally in the large bowel or elsewhere. (05 Mar 2000) |
| small cell carcinoma | <oncology, tumour> Common malignant neoplasm of bronchus. Cells of the tumour have endocrine like characteristics and may secrete one or more of a wide range of hormones, especially regulatory peptides like bombesin. (18 Nov 1997) |
| spindle cell carcinoma | <tumour> A carcinoma composed of elongated cells, frequently a poorly differentiated squamous cell carcinoma which may be difficult to distinguish from a sarcoma. Synonym: sarcomatoid carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| squamous cell carcinoma | <oncology, tumour> A malignant growth originating from a squamous cell. This form of cancer can be seen on the skin, lips, inside the mouth, throat or oesophagus. (27 Sep 1997) |
| nevoid basal cell carcinoma syndrome | <syndrome> An inherited group of defects which involve abnormalities of the skin, eyes, nervous system, endocrine, glands and bones. The condition is characterised by an unusual facial appearance and a predisposition for skin cancer. (27 Sep 1997) |
| infiltrating ductal cell carcinoma | <oncology, tumour> A cancer that begins in the mammary glands and has spread to areas outside the gland. (13 Nov 1997) |
| oat cell carcinoma | <tumour> An anaplastic, highly malignant, and usually bronchogenic carcinoma composed of small ovoid cells with very scanty cytoplasm; this carcinoma and small round cell carcinoma's comprise over one-third of carcinoma's of the lung. Synonym: small cell carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| transitional cell carcinoma | Cancer that develops in the lining of the renal pelvis. This type of cancer also occurs in the ureter and the bladder. (12 Dec 1998) |
| fibrolamellar liver cell carcinoma | <tumour> Primary hepatic carcinoma in which malignant hepatocytes are intersected by fibrous lamellated bands. Synonym: oncocytic hepatocellular tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| large cell carcinoma | A group of lung cancers in which the cells are large and look abnormal. (12 Dec 1998) |
| liver cell carcinoma | <tumour> A carcinoma derived from parenchymal cells of the liver. Synonym: hepatocarcinoma, hepatocellular carcinoma, liver cell carcinoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| benign giant lymph node hyperplasia | Solitary masses of lymphoid tissue containing concentric perivascular aggregates of lymphocytes, occurring usually in the mediastinum or hilar region of young adults; similar changes have been reported outside the mediastinum and, if associated with interfollicular sheets of plasma cells, may progress to lymphoma or plasmacytoma. Synonym: angiofollicular mediastinal lymph node hyperplasia, Castleman's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| giant | 1. A man of extraordinari bulk and stature. "Giants of mighty bone and bold emprise." 2. A person of extraordinary strength or powers, bodily or intellectual. 3. Any animal, plant, or thing, of extraordinary size or power. Giant's Causeway, a vast collection of basaltic pillars, in the county of Antrim on the northern coast of Ireland. Origin: OE. Giant, geant, geaunt, OF. Jaiant, geant, F. Geant, L. Gigas, fr. Gr, from the root of E. Gender, genesis. See Gender, and cf. Gigantic. Like a giant; extraordinary in size, strength, or power; as, giant brothers; a giant son. Giant cell. <anatomy> A very large African heron (Ardeomega goliath). It is the largest heron known. Giant kettle, a pothole of very large dimensions, as found in Norway in connection with glaciers. See Pothole. Giant powder. See Nitroglycerin. <botany> Giant puffball, one of several species of very large squids, belonging to Architeuthis and allied genera. Some are over forty feet long.

| giant axon | <biology> Extraordinarily large unmyelinated axons found in invertebrates. Some, like the squid giant axon, can approach 1 mm diameter. Large axons have high conduction speeds, the giant axons are invariably involved in panic or escape responses and may (e.g. Crayfish) have electrical synapses to further increase speed. Vertebrate axons with high conduction velocites are much narrower: they are myelinated, allowing saltatory conduction. (17 Dec 1997) |
