Malignant neoplasm: overlapping lesion of larynx - what does this mean

Malignant neoplasm of the larynx occurs when abnormal cells in the larynx grow and divide uncontrollably, forming a mass of tissue that can invade and destroy healthy tissue. overlapping lesions occur when the mass of abnormal cells grows and spreads to nearby tissue, creating a lesion that overlaps with other lesions.

What happens during the disease - malignant neoplasm: overlapping lesion of larynx

Malignant neoplasm of the larynx is caused by the abnormal and uncontrolled growth of cells in the larynx. this growth typically begins in the epithelial cells of the larynx, and can spread to the surrounding tissues and organs, leading to the formation of overlapping lesions. these lesions can cause physical obstruction of the airways, leading to difficulty breathing, and can also lead to further complications such as infections, bleeding, and the spread of cancer cells to other parts of the body.
