Yes, an encapsulated tumor can be malignant. While many encapsulated tumors are benign, some malignant tumors can also form a capsule as a response to the surrounding tissue. The presence of a capsule does not necessarily indicate that a tumor is non-cancerous; further evaluation, such as imaging and biopsy, is required to determine the tumor's nature. Therefore, it's important to assess encapsulated tumors on a case-by-case basis.
