Name of entity
- Ideally should be WHO name.
- E.g. pleomorphic undifferentiated sarcoma, not malignant fibrous histiocytoma.
- Names should reflect the pathogenesis as is understood currently.
- E.g. keratocystic odontogenic tumour, not odontogenic keratocyst.
- The use of common misnomers is discouraged.
- Some terms are tolerated... if they are very common, e.g. pyogenic granuloma (better term would be lobular capillary hemangioma).
- Other names are listed under the heading with also known as (AKA).
