I am researching what 'Metastatic neoplasm' means. Does it mean that a pre-existing neoplasm would have had to be present or can its meaning vary?

Dr. Ed Friedlander, Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine Answered Aug. 3, 2015
42 years experience in Pathology
Meaning is clear. It is cancer and it has spread.
