'''Large epithelioid tumours''' are common and represent a large [[differential diagnosis]] when viewed generally.  
'''Large epithelioid tumours''' are common and represent a large [[differential diagnosis]] when viewed generally.  
[[Malignant]] epithelioid lesions are often [[carcinoma]]s... but may be a large number different tumours.


A more general discussion of epithelioid lesions is in the ''[[epithelioid cell lesions]]'' article.  Small epithelioid lesions are dealt with in the ''[[small round cell tumours]]'' article.
