When is a biopsy carried out?

The cells are the basic unit of the body. In a healthy state the cells grow and split into new cells according to the body's needs. Cells grow old, die and are replaced by young cells. There are situations when new cells are created without the body needing them and the old cells do not die as they are supposed to. The surplus cells are accumulated and create an accumulation of tissues called a tumor.

There are two kinds of tumors: benign and malignant. What is the difference? In most sickness studies, the difference is a difference between life and death and therefore the process of early discovery is extremely important.

Benign tumors are not cancerous, and can usually be removed by a surgery. Counted among them are beauty spots, cysts, warts, polyps and myomas. The growth of those tumors is usually slow. Usually, a benign tumor doesn't grow back after it is removed and does not endanger the life of the patient.

A malignant tumor is a cancerous tumor. The cells it is composed of can infiltrate various tissues and create secondary tumors inside them. In addition, cells from the tumor can infiltrate the blood circulation or the lymph system and create secondary growths in distant areas. Malignant tumors can grow back after they are removed.

Biopsy is a tissue sample. This medical test is performed on a tissue or on cells or even on a whole organ which are removed from the body. The goal of this test is to determine the type of cells, whether they are benign or malignant.
