What is chorist?
benign tumors known as choristomas are usually composed of normal tissue that develops and grows in an abnormal place. Choristom can consist of some cells found in the surrounding tissue, but mostly contain different types of cells. In most cases, growth does not contain cells related to the immediate area. Abnormal growth generally remains small and can be found anywhere in the body. Tumors may or may not produce symptoms depending on specific locations and treatment may include surgery when tissue disrupts function or causes unpleasant symptoms. The bony tissue may contain a substance similar to marrow, which is generally similar to gelatin fat, and cartilage cells generally contain fibrous tissue containing vascular structures. The largest lesions usually measure a diameter of 3.75 inches (1.5 centimeters) and often develop into solid nodes. Dermal growth tends to appear under the skin of the face, in the oral cavity and in the eye. The tumor may appear secondary to family properties. Masses could also be inYvinout on the lacrimal glands. These eye tumors may occur as flat, small lesions or can grow to larger, bulbous and filled masses. Treatment of choristom in this area generally requires surgical removal.
Young adults, especially women, can develop choristom. Some prosthesis bearers experience the growth of choristom on bone ridges of rubber and some doctors believe that the condition is due to irritation or trauma caused by friction between rubber and prosthesis. If more growth occurs, the individual sometimes has a state known as Albright's Hereditary Osteodystrophy.
When they develop in the gastrointestinal tract, chorists rarely attack or compress different tissue, but can be obstructive. Especially in the esophagus bleeding and scarring often accompany growth. Constant irritation usually causes ulcers. Treatment of skin conditions in the area of stomach generally includes drugs classified as blockHistamine receptor (H2) or proton pump inhibitors.
Another type of tumor commonly found in children, Hamartoma, is a benign growth that develops on the head or neck. Unlike Choristom, Hamartoma contains the same cellular structure as the surrounding tissues, but the cells are prolonged into an unorganized matter. When chorists or hamartomas develop in brain tissue, they often cause seizure disorders. Heterotopia, another type of benign growth, usually forms in the fetal brain and occurs as a neuronal tissue that does not apply to the right part of the brain.
