All terms in NCIT

Label	Id	Description
Peau d'orange	NCIT_C7740	[Swelling and dimpling of the surface of the skin, which is typically associated with carcinoma of the breast.]
Digestive System Hemangioma	NCIT_C7741	[A hemangioma arising from any part of the digestive system.]
Benign Digestive System Neoplasm	NCIT_C4787	[A non-metastasizing neoplasm arising from any part of the digestive system.]
Laryngeal Squamous Cell Papilloma	NCIT_C7742	[A benign exophytic neoplasm that arises from the larynx, usually the true vocal cords. It is related to human papillomavirus infection and may arise as a single or multiple lesions. It is characterized by the presence of a connective tissue core covered by stratified squamous epithelium. Hoarseness is the presenting symptom. Transformation to carcinoma is rare.]
Benign Laryngeal Neoplasm	NCIT_C3601	[A non-metastasizing neoplasm that arises from the larynx. Representative examples include squamous papilloma and hemangioma.]
Squamous Cell Papilloma	NCIT_C3712	[A benign epithelial neoplasm characterized by a papillary growth pattern and a proliferation of neoplastic squamous cells without morphologic evidence of malignancy. Most frequently it arises in the oral cavity, nasopharynx, larynx, esophagus, vagina, and vulva.]
Mouth Mucous Membrane Leukoplakia	NCIT_C7743	[A clinical term that indicates the presence of a white patch on the mucous membrane in the mouth which cannot be characterized as any other disease. It may be a precancerous condition and in most cases histologic examination reveals keratosis.]
Oral Cavity Leukoplakia	NCIT_C36262	[A white patch or plaque on the oral cavity mucosa that cannot be characterized clinically or pathologically as any other disease. The diagnosis of leukoplakia is one of exclusion; other conditions such as candidiasis, lichen planus, leukoedema, etc., must be ruled out before a diagnosis of leukoplakia can be made. Leukoplakia may be a premalignant condition.]
Cardiac Myxoma	NCIT_C7748	[A myxoma arising from the endocardium.]
Myxoma	NCIT_C6577	[A benign soft tissue neoplasm characterized by the presence of spindle and stellate cells, lobulated growth pattern, and myxoid stroma formation.]
Benign Endocardial Neoplasm	NCIT_C4608	[A non-metastasizing neoplasm that arises from the endocardium.]
Fibrohistiocytic Neoplasm	NCIT_C8402	[A benign, intermediate, or malignant mesenchymal neoplasm composed of fibrohistiocytic cells, spindle fibroblastic cells, and histiocytes, in a storiform pattern.]
Peutz-Jeghers Polyp of the Small Intestine	NCIT_C7755	[A non-neoplastic hamartomatous polyp that arises from the small intestine. It is characterized by the presence of smooth muscle branching bands, and cystic mucosal changes.]
Peutz-Jeghers Polyp	NCIT_C4733	[A hamartomatous polyp that occurs in the stomach, small and large intestines, and rarely within the esophagus, nasopharynx and the urinary tract. The Peutz-Jeghers polyps are grossly lobulated and dark. Microscopically, they have a central core of smooth muscle covered by mucosa. The smooth muscle shows tree-like branching. The question of whether or not the Peutz-Jeghers polyp is precancerous is a matter of controversy. The loss of heterozygosity on chromosome 19p (where the responsible gene LKB1 is located) suggests that the increased risk of malignancy may be due to malignant transformation from hamartoma to adenocarcinoma. --2002]
Small Intestinal Hamartoma	NCIT_C36206	[A non-neoplastic, hamartomatous polyp that arises from the small intestine. It includes the juvenile polyp and Peutz-Jeghers polyp.]
Squamous Metaplasia of Rectal Mucosa	NCIT_C7756
Squamous Metaplasia	NCIT_C3237	[A morphologic finding indicating the transformation of glandular or transitional epithelial cells to, usually, mature squamous epithelial cells. Representative examples include squamous metaplasia of bronchial epithelium, cervix, urinary bladder, and prostate gland.]
DNA Repair Disorder	NCIT_C7757
Prostatic Squamous Metaplasia	NCIT_C7758
Angiokeratoma Circumscriptum	NCIT_C7751
