| papillary cystadenoma lymphomatosum | <oncology, tumour> A benign tumour characterised histologically by tall columnar epithelium within a lymphoid tissue stroma. It is usually found in the salivary glands, especially the parotid. (25 Jun 1999) |
|---|---|
| cystadenoma | A benign neoplasm derived from glandular epithelium, in which cystic accumulations of retained secretions are formed. In some instances, considerable portions of the neoplasm, or even the entire mass, may be cystic. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystadenoma, mucinous | A multilocular tumour produced by the epithelial cells of the ovary and having mucin-filled cavities. The great majority of these tumours is benign. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystadenoma, papillary | A benign neoplasm of the ovary. (12 Dec 1998) |
| cystadenoma, serous | A cystic tumour of the ovary, containing thin, clear, yellow serous fluid and varying amounts of solid tissue, with a malignant potential several times greater than that of mucinous cystadenoma (cystadenoma, mucinous). It can be unilocular, parvilocular, or multilocular. It is often bilateral and papillary. The cysts may vary greatly in size. (12 Dec 1998) |
| apocrine | <physiology> Form of secretion in which the apical portion of the cell is shed, as in the secretion of fat by cells of the mammary gland. The fat droplet is surrounded by apical plasma membrane and this has been used experimentally as a source of plasma membrane. (18 Nov 1997) |
| apocrine adenoma | <tumour> A solitary benign tumour occurring in women usually in the labia majora, cystic and papillary, and composed of epithelium resembling that of apocrine glands. Synonym: apocrine adenoma, hidradenoma papilliferum. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apocrine carcinoma | <tumour> A carcinoma composed predominantly of cells with abundant eosinophilic granular cytoplasm, occurring in the breast, a carcinoma of the apocrine glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apocrine gland | A gland whose secretory product includes an apical portion of the secretory cell such as the secretion of lipid droplets in lactation. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apocrine glands | Large, branched, specialised sweat glands that empty into the upper portion of a hair follicle instead of directly onto the skin. (12 Dec 1998) |
| apocrine metaplasia | Alteration of acinar epithelium of breast tissue to resemble apocrine sweat glands; seen commonly in fibrocystic disease of the breasts. (05 Mar 2000) |
| apocrine miliaria | Chronic pruritic disease, usually in women, characterised by small follicular papular eruptions in apocrine areas. It is caused by obstruction and rupture of intraepidermal apocrine ducts. (12 Dec 1998) |
| apocrine sweat glands | Sudoriferous glands that develop in association with hair follicles and undergo enlargement and secretory development at puberty; they secrete a viscous and odourless sweat that supports the growth of bacteria leading to an acrid odour; secretion is by an eccrine, not apocrine, mechanism. Synonym: axillary sweat glands. (05 Mar 2000) |
