No. Some are benign, which means they probably should be removed but also means they are not yet cancerous. If you think you have one I strongly urge you to seek a Doctor and have it checked out. No, some tumors can simply be fatty tissue. I am not a doctor, but my pet dog has 2 fatty tissue tumors and they're not cancerous.
