• hypertrophy
  3 June 2003

  Definition: Hypertrophy refers to an increase in the size of cells, resulting in an increase in the size of the organ.
  Pathogenesis
  The hypertrophied organ has no new cells, just larger cells. The increased size of the cells is due not to cellular swelling but to the synthesis of more structural components.
  Cells capable of division may respond to stress by undergoing both hyperplasia and hypertrophy, whereas in nondividing cells (e.g., myocardial fibers), hypertrophy occurs.

  polyp. Adj. polypous, polypoid WKP
  Definition: A polyp is an abnormal growth of tissue projecting from a mucous membrane.
  If it is attached to the surface by a narrow elongated stalk, it is said to be pedunculated. If no stalk is present, it is said to be sessile.
  Polyps are commonly found in the colon, stomach, nose, ear, sinus(es), urinary bladder, and uterus.
  They may also occur elsewhere in the body where mucous membranes exist like the cervix, vocal folds, and small intestine. (...)
