i guess u mean lesion.... any tissue which shudnt be present at the place where it is found is termed as lesion.. even cancerous tissues are lesions.. they are usually termed either malignant or benign lesion (terms mean the same as they mean for cancer).. they are also classified on the basis of their location like skin lesion, stomach ulcer etc... actually, they are of many types and classification can be done on many basis....
