Uncontrolled mitotic cell division is termed as neoplasia. Neoplasia (that is, the formation of new strange tissues) takes place when a cell suffers mutation in its genetic material, loses the capability to control its own division and the failure is transferred to its descendants.

Cancers are malignant neoplasias. The word malignant signifies that neoplastic cells can disseminate to distant sites invading other tissues and organs. Neoplasias whose cells can’t disseminate to distant sites are termed as benign neoplasias.
