Label	Id	Description
Intestinal Neoplasms	D007414	[Tumors or cancer of the INTESTINES.]
Heavy Chain Disease	D006362	[A disorder of immunoglobulin synthesis in which large quantities of abnormal heavy chains are excreted in the urine. The amino acid sequences of the N-(amino-) terminal regions of these chains are normal, but they have a deletion extending from part of the variable domain through the first domain of the constant region, so that they cannot form cross-links to the light chains. The defect arises through faulty coupling of the variable (V) and constant (C) region genes.]
Immunoproliferative Disorders	D007160	[Disorders characterized by abnormal proliferation of primary cells of the immune system or by excessive production of immunoglobulins.]
Sarcoma	D012509	[A connective tissue neoplasm formed by proliferation of mesodermal cells; it is usually highly malignant.]
Neoplasms, Connective and Soft Tissue	D018204	[Neoplasms developing from some structure of the connective and subcutaneous tissue. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in connective or soft tissue.]
Colitis, Lymphocytic	D046730	[A subtype of MICROSCOPIC COLITIS, characterized by chronic watery DIARRHEA of unknown origin, a normal COLONOSCOPY but abnormal histopathology on BIOPSY. Microscopic examination of biopsy samples taken from the COLON show infiltration of LYMPHOCYTES in the superficial EPITHELIUM and the underlying connective tissue (lamina propria).]
Sarcoidosis	D012507	[An idiopathic systemic inflammatory granulomatous disorder comprised of epithelioid and multinucleated giant cells with little necrosis. It usually invades the lungs with fibrosis and may also involve lymph nodes, skin, liver, spleen, eyes, phalangeal bones, and parotid glands.]
Osteosarcoma	D012516	[A sarcoma originating in bone-forming cells, affecting the ends of long bones. It is the most common and most malignant of sarcomas of the bones, and occurs chiefly among 10- to 25-year-old youths. (From Stedman, 25th ed)]
Neoplasms, Bone Tissue	D018213	[Neoplasms composed of bony tissue, whether normal or of a soft tissue which has become ossified. The concept does not refer to neoplasms located in bones.]
Sarcoma, Yoshida	D012517	[An experimental sarcoma of rats.]
Sarcoma, Experimental	D012513	[Experimentally induced neoplasms of CONNECTIVE TISSUE in animals to provide a model for studying human SARCOMA.]
Impetigo	D007169	[A common superficial bacterial infection caused by STAPHYLOCOCCUS AUREUS or group A beta-hemolytic streptococci. Characteristics include pustular lesions that rupture and discharge a thin, amber-colored fluid that dries and forms a crust. This condition is commonly located on the face, especially about the mouth and nose.]
Staphylococcal Skin Infections	D013207	[Infections to the skin caused by bacteria of the genus STAPHYLOCOCCUS.]
Streptococcal Infections	D013290	[Infections with bacteria of the genus STREPTOCOCCUS.]
Sarcoma, Kaposi	D012514	[A multicentric, malignant neoplastic vascular proliferation characterized by the development of bluish-red cutaneous nodules, usually on the lower extremities, most often on the toes or feet, and slowly increasing in size and number and spreading to more proximal areas. The tumors have endothelium-lined channels and vascular spaces admixed with variably sized aggregates of spindle-shaped cells, and often remain confined to the skin and subcutaneous tissue, but widespread visceral involvement may occur. Kaposi's sarcoma occurs spontaneously in Jewish and Italian males in Europe and the United States. An aggressive variant in young children is endemic in some areas of Africa. A third form occurs in about 0.04% of kidney transplant patients. There is also a high incidence in AIDS patients. (From Dorland, 27th ed & Holland et al., Cancer Medicine, 3d ed, pp2105-7) HHV-8 is the suspected cause.]
Herpesviridae Infections	D006566	[Virus diseases caused by the HERPESVIRIDAE.]
Neoplasms, Vascular Tissue	D009383	[Neoplasms composed of vascular tissue. This concept does not refer to neoplasms located in blood vessels.]
Mast-Cell Sarcoma	D012515	[A unifocal malignant tumor that consists of atypical pathological MAST CELLS without systemic involvement. It causes local destructive growth in organs other than in skin or bone marrow.]
Mastocytosis	D008415	[A heterogenous group of disorders characterized by the abnormal increase of MAST CELLS in only the skin (MASTOCYTOSIS, CUTANEOUS), in extracutaneous tissues involving multiple organs (MASTOCYTOSIS, SYSTEMIC), or in solid tumors (MASTOCYTOMA).]
Sarcoma, Ewing	D012512	[A malignant tumor of the bone which always arises in the medullary tissue, occurring more often in cylindrical bones. The tumor occurs usually before the age of 20, about twice as frequently in males as in females.]
