Dysplasia (from Ancient Greek Î´ÏÏ- dys-, bad or difficult and ÏÎ»Î¬ÏÎ¹Ï plasis, formation) is an ambiguous term used in pathology to refer to an abnormality of development or an epithelial anomaly of growth and differentiation (epithelial dysplasia).
This is due to the confering of such atypia to progeny-cells further down the lineage of that cell type. The term atypia is also used dermatologically and can be a precursor to melanoma. The related concept of dysplasia refers to an abnormality of development, and includes abnormalities on larger, histopathologic, scales.
