Relating to or characterized by the presence of cyst-derived tumors or growths.
From 'cystoma' (cyst-related tumor) plus the adjective suffix '-ous' (characterized by, having the quality of). This descriptive term allows doctors to classify conditions involving multiple tumors.
Adding '-ous' to a noun turns it into an adjective describing that quality—'cancer' becomes 'cancerous,' 'poison' becomes 'poisonous'—it's one of English's most useful suffixes!
