Overgrowth of a skin structure at a localised region -: (A) Hamaoma, (B) Malignant tumor, (C) Choriostoma, (D) Polyp
Answer is A. Hamaoma is a mass of disorganized tissue indigenous to the paicular site. A polyp is a mass that projects above a mucosal surface, as in the gut, to form a macroscopically visible structure. Choristoma is a congenital anomaly consisting of a heterotopic rest of cells. For example, a small nodule of well-developed and normally organized pancreatic tissue may be found in the submucosa of the stomach, duodenum, or small intestine.
