Label	Id	Description
Small Intestinal Leiomyoma	NCIT_C7725	[A benign smooth muscle neoplasm arising from the small intestine. It is characterized by the presence of spindle cells with cigar-shaped nuclei, interlacing fascicles, and a whorled pattern.]
Benign Small Intestinal Neoplasm	NCIT_C3600	[A non-metastasizing neoplasm arising from the wall of the small intestine.]
Gallbladder Adenoma	NCIT_C7720	[A polypoid epithelial neoplasm that arises from the gallbladder. According to the neoplastic growth pattern, it is classified as tubular, tubulopapillary, or papillary.]
Adenomatous Polyp	NCIT_C3764	[A polypoid neoplasm arising from the glandular epithelium. There is proliferation of glandular cells which may display dysplastic cytologic features. Representative examples include the adenomatous polyps of the colon and rectum.]
Hepatobiliary Precancerous Condition	NCIT_C7655
Gingival Carcinoma	NCIT_C7721	[A carcinoma of the oral cavity that arises from the upper or lower gingiva.]
Malignant Gingival Neoplasm	NCIT_C9317	[A primary or metastatic malignant neoplasm that affects the gums.]
Kidney Fibrosarcoma	NCIT_C7726	[A usually aggressive malignant neoplasm arising from the kidney. It is characterized by the presence of spindle-shaped fibroblasts and collagenous stroma formation in a herringbone growth pattern.]
Kidney Sarcoma	NCIT_C4525	[A sarcoma that arises from the kidney.]
Light Chain Deposition Disease	NCIT_C7727	[A condition in which plasma cells secrete immunoglobulin light chains of only one type, kappa or lambda. Light chain deposition disease is often associated with multiple myeloma or lymphoproliferative disease, but as many as 50% of patients have no evidence of neoplastic plasma cell proliferation. Light chains excreted in the urine are known as Bence Jones protein. Amyloidosis and severe renal failure occur more frequently than in multiple myeloma. Also known as Bence Jones myeloma. L-chain disease, L-chain myeloma, and LCDD. --2004]
Paget Disease of the Scrotum	NCIT_C7728	[A rare form of Paget disease that arises from the scrotum. It is usually not associated with an underlying malignancy. It presents as a red plaque or raised lesion. Microscopically, it is characterized by the presence of the typical Paget cells which are large, round cells with abundant cytoplasm and prominent nuclei.]
Scrotal Carcinoma	NCIT_C6389	[A carcinoma occurring in the scrotum.]
Extramammary Paget Disease	NCIT_C3302	[A malignant neoplasm in which there is infiltration of the skin by neoplastic large cells with abundant pale cytoplasm and large nuclei with prominent nucleoli (Paget cells). It may affect the anus, penis, scrotum, and vulva.]
Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Penis	NCIT_C7729	[A squamous cell carcinoma arising from the penis. It occurs chiefly in the squamous epithelium of the glans, coronal sulcus, and foreskin. Etiologic factors include phimosis, lichen sclerosus, smoking, ultraviolet irradiation, history of warts or condylomas, and lack of circumcision. Human papilloma virus is present in a subset of penile squamous cell carcinomas. Patients may present with an exophytic or flat ulcerative mass in the glans or a large primary tumor with inguinal nodal and skin metastases. (WHO, 2004)]
Triazolam	NCIT_C29520	[A triazolobenzodiazepinederivative with sedative-hypnotic property. Triazolam interacts directly with a specific site on the gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA)-A-chloride-ionophore receptor complex located on the neuronal membrane. Binding causes allosteric modification of the receptor and modulation of its affinity for the inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA. This results in enhancement of synaptic actions of GABA and includes an increase in the frequency of chloride channel openings, increased chloride ion conductance, membrane hyperpolarization and ultimately synaptic inhibition and decreased neuronal excitability.]
Trilisate	NCIT_C29521
Trimethobenzamide Hydrochloride	NCIT_C29522	[The hydrochloride salt form of trimethobenzamide, a benzamide derivative with an antiemetic property. Although the mechanism of action is largely unknown, it inhibits the chemoreceptor trigger zone (CTZ), an area in the medulla oblongata through which emetic impulses are conveyed to the vomiting center, thereby suppressing nausea and vomiting.]
Triptorelin Pamoate	NCIT_C29523	[The pamoate salt of triptorelin, a synthetic decapeptide agonist analog of luteinizing hormone releasing hormone (LHRH). Possessing greater potency than endogenous LHRH, triptorelin reversibly represses gonadotropin secretion after prolonged administration. After chronic, continuous administration, a sustained decrease in LH, FSH and testicular and ovarian steroidogenesis is observed. The serum testosterone concentration may fall to levels typically seen in surgically castrated men. (NCI04)]
Trisalicylate	NCIT_C29524
Witch Hazel-containing Anti-Hemorroidal Formulation	NCIT_C29525	[A preparation containing witch hazel (Hamamelis virginiana) extract, with anti-pruritic activity. Witch hazel extract has been shown to inhibit alpha-glucosidase as well as human leukocyte elastase, enzymes which contribute to the degradation of connective tissue. Tucks hemorrhoidal wipes are used to relieve and soothe the irritation, burning and pruritis of hemorrhoidal tissue.]
