  2. Fibroma It is a benign tumour of fibrous tissue origin. Lipoma It is a benign tumour of adult fat cells.

  3. Leiomyoma It is benign tumour of smooth muscle cells.

  4. Chondroma It is a benign tumour of cartilage. Osteoma It is a benign tumour arising from bone. Hemangioma It is a benign tumour of blood vessels.

Malignant Mesenchymal tumours (Sarcomas) •General characters: • Occurs in children and young adults. • Rapid growth than carcinoma. • Form a huge bulky mass, homogeneous, white, fish- flesh like with areas of hemorrhage and necrosis (sarc-flesh). • They are highly vascular tumours with very thin and badly formed blood vessels which lead to hemorrhage and are easily penetrated by malignant cells leading to early blood-bone metastases.
