    Field stain. Carcinoma is a malignancy that develops from epithelial cells. [1] Specifically, a carcinoma is a cancer that begins in a tissue that lines the inner or outer surfaces of the body, and that arises from cells originating in the endodermal, mesodermal [2] or ectodermal germ layer during embryogenesis. [3]

  2. Cancer stem cell. Cancer stem cells ( CSCs) are cancer cells (found within tumors or hematological cancers) that possess characteristics associated with normal stem cells, specifically the ability to give rise to all cell types found in a particular cancer sample. CSCs are therefore tumorigenic (tumor-forming), perhaps in contrast to other non ...

    Lung cancer. Lung cancer, also known as lung carcinoma, is a malignant tumor that begins in the lung. Lung cancer is caused by genetic damage to the DNA of cells in the airways, often caused by cigarette smoking or inhaling damaging chemicals. Damaged airway cells gain the ability to multiply unchecked, causing the growth of a tumor.

    Solid glomus tumor (75% of cases): Consisting predominantly of glomus cells, with poor vasculature and rare smooth muscle cells. Glomangioma (20% of cases): Tumors with a prominent vascular component. Glomangiomyoma (5% of cases): Tumors with prominent vascular and smooth muscle components. Cancerous glomus tumors are exceedingly rare.
