What is a spindle cell tumor in the stomach?
A benign spindle cell neoplasm is a tumor that develops in connective tissue other than bone such as skeletal muscle, fat, tendon, fibrous tissue and nerve and blood vessel tissue. The most common benign soft tissue tumor is called a lipoma.
I am not 100% sure but i am quite confident that it is the cell that lets humans have empathy, self awareness and forgiveness. In 2006 it was found that whales and dolphins have spindle cells. Another animal that has spindle cells is apes and gorillas. New Answer. Spindle cells are only found in cancerous tumors. They have a very unique appearance and are characteristic of a specific type of dysplasia which is very rare in caner patients. Spindle cells have an atypical spindle shape, have elongated nuclei and ropes of collagen. They arise from abnormal mitosis, cell division, that leads to the development of the cancerous tumor. Spindle cell tumors start in the skins epithelial cells or lining of the internal organs. As the cancer progresses it can be spread to other areas. (The above answer relates to the spindle neurons.)
A cancerous cell.
In medical "Lipoma" is a benign tumor of adipose tissue (cell that contain fat).
Spindle fibers. These structures form the mitotic spindle and play a crucial role in separating chromosomes during cell division.
Generally speaking, no, lipomas aren't dangerous. They're pretty common, in fact. They usually don't cause any pain or anything so the patient may not even know they have them unless they happen to feel them by pressing on them. They're just there in the fatty tissue of the body. They are almost always benign growths (not cancerous). The only times a doctor would consider removing them necessary would be if it turned out to be cancerous or if it interfered with the function of nearby structures. Both of these events are pretty rare. Most of the the time they just leave them alone because it isn't worth the infection risk from opening up the skin and subcutaneous fat to remove them. If they see signs that it may be cancerous, they would likely do a needle biopsy to verify before trying to remove it. These days they really like to be absolutely sure before they cut on you because strep infections are at an all-time high and are insidiously easy to get if you have open wounds.
Animal cells have spindle fibers in them.
Spindle fibers. They help separate chromosomes during cell division by attaching to the centromeres of each chromosome and pulling them to opposite poles of the cell.
A spindle develops during the metaphase stage of cell division.

Most cancerous tumors are detected at advanced phase of the cell cycle.
