| adenoma of nipple | A benign tumour which may clinically resemble Paget's disease, but which is a papillary or solid growth of columnar and myoepithelial cells producing a florid pseudoinfiltrative pattern. Synonym: adenoma of nipple, erosive adenomatosis of nipple. (05 Mar 2000) |

| adenoma sebaceum | <radiology> Seen in tuberous sclerosis, raised, red papules on the face, mainly about the nose, misnomer: they're really perivascular fibromata (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, adrenal cortical | A benign neoplasm of adrenal cortical cells resembling normal adrenal cells histologically but possessing functional autonomy. In general it does not exceed 5 cm in its largest dimension, although benign tumours exceeding 20 cm have been reported. Adrenal cortical adenomas produce hypercortisolism and hyperaldosteronism, but seldom produce adrenogenital syndromes. For the most part the prognosis after surgery is reasonably favourable. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, basophil | A small tumour of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland whose cells stain with basic dyes. It may give rise to excessive secretion of acth, resulting in cushing's syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, bile duct | A benign tumour of the intrahepatic bile ducts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, chromophobe | A tumour of the anterior lobe of the pituitary gland whose cells do not stain readily with either acid or basic dyes and whose presence may be associated with hypopituitarism. Although classically these adenomas have been said to be composed of sparsely granulated or degranulated (nonfunctioning) cells, some contain functioning cells and may be associated with a hyperpituitary state, e.g., acromegaly or cushing's syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, islet cell | A benign tumour of the islets of langerhans that may occur anywhere throughout the pancreas. Such tumours may result in hyperinsulinism or zollinger-ellison syndrome. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, liver cell | A benign epithelial tumour of the liver. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, oxyphilic | A usually benign adenoma composed of oncocytes with granular, eosinophilic cytoplasm due to the presence of abundant mitochondria. It is often composed of huerthle cells found in the thyroid. It occurs uncommonly in the kidney, salivary glands, and endocrine glands. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, pleomorphic | A benign, slow-growing tumour, most commonly of the salivary gland, occurring as a small, painless, firm nodule, usually of the parotid gland, but also found in any major or accessory salivary gland anywhere in the oral cavity. It is most often seen in women in the fifth decade. Histologically, the tumour presents a variety of cells: cuboidal, columnar, and squamous cells, showing all forms of epithelial growth. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, sweat gland | A benign neoplasm derived from epithelial cells of sweat glands. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenoma, villous | An adenoma of the large intestine. It is usually a solitary, sessile, often large, tumour of colonic mucosa composed of mucinous epithelium covering delicate vascular projections. Hypersecretion and malignant changes occur frequently. (12 Dec 1998) |
| adenomatoid | Resembling an adenoma. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenomatoid odontogenic tumour | A benign epithelial odontogenic tumour appearing radiographically as a well-circumscribed radiolucent-radiopaque lesion usually surrounding the crown of an impacted tooth in an adolescent or young adult; characterised histologically by columnar cells organised in a duct-like configuration interspersed with spindle-shaped cells and amyloid-like deposition that gradually undergoes dystrophic calcification. Synonym: adenoameloblastoma, ameloblastic adenomatoid tumour. (05 Mar 2000) |
| adenomatoid tumour | A small, circumscribed, benign tumour of the genital tract, composed of small glandlike spaces lined by flattened or cuboidal mesothelium-like cells. (12 Dec 1998) |
