A member asked:
Hi docs, can you tell me if solid tumors are more common with cancer?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: All tumors whether benign or malignant are solid lesions. Only lymphomas are not part of the solid tumor grouping. Whether a fibrous tumor is benign or malignant it has the same consistency and diagnosis only made microscopically.
