[mod.L., ad. G. hamartom (E. Albrecht 1904, in Verh. d. deutsch. path. Ges. VII. 153), f. Gr. ἁµαρτ-άνω to go wrong: see -oma.]
A tumour-like mass resulting from the faulty growth or development of normal cells or tissue.
1904Index. Med. II. 142/2 (index) Hamartoma. 1909J. G. Adami Princ. Path. I. iii. xxiii. 749 We must be governed here by our conception of the meaning of the word angioma... If we restrict it to mean a tumor, due to the independent growth of vessels, they [sc. other tumors having vessels as their main constituent] must be cast out of this class. To provide a class for them Albrecht has suggested the term Hamartoma. 1950G. P. Wright Introd. Path. xxvii. 479 Striking examples of the vascular hamartomas may be seen in the simple, cavernous, or more complicated plexiform, overgrowths of blood vessels that form congenital nævi, birth-marks,..or vascular warts. 1970S. D. Kobernick tr. Masson's Human Tumors i. ii. 77 In one category, heterotopia consists of tissues which belong to the region where they are encountered, but have escaped the organization of this region and are found in excess: these are Hamartomas. |
