Desmoplasia

In medicine, desmoplasia is the growth of fibrous or connective tissue.〔(【引用サイトリンク】publisher=MedicineNet )〕 It is also called desmoplastic reaction to emphasize that it is secondary to an insult. Desmoplasia may occur around a neoplasm, causing dense fibrosis around the tumor,〔 or scar tissue (adhesions) within the abdomen after abdominal surgery.〔
Desmoplasia is usually only associated with malignant neoplasms, which can evoke a fibrosis response by invading healthy tissue. Infiltrating metastatic ductal carcinomas of the breast often have a scirrhous, stellate appearance caused by desmoplastic formations.
==Terminology==
Desmoplasia originates from the ancient Greek δεσμός ''desmos'', "knot", "bond" and πλάσις ''plasis'', "formation". It is usually used in the description of desmoplastic small round cell tumors.
Neoplasia is the medical term used for both benign and malignant tumors, and is used as a blanket term that refers to abnormal, excessive, uncoordinated, and autonomous cellular/tissue growth.
Desmoplasia refers to growth of dense connective tissue or stroma. This growth is characterized by low cellularity with hyalinized or sclerotic stroma and disorganized blood vessel infiltration. This growth is called a desmoplastic response and occurs as result of injury or neoplasia.〔 This response is coupled with malignancy in non-cutaneous neoplasias, and with benign or malignant tumors if associated with cutaneous pathologies.〔
The heterogeneity of tumor cancer cells and stroma cells combined with the complexities of surrounding connective tissue suggest that understanding cancer by tumor cell genomic analysis is not sufficient; analyzing the cells together with the surrounding stromal tissue may provide more comprehensive and meaningful data.
