A member asked:
Help please? i want to know what are benign tumours encapsulated in?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Peripheral cells: As a benign tumor grows it has an advancing capsule that is composed of compessed tumor cells. On occasion fibrous tissue from the matrix that the tumor is growing in will form the capsule.
