I think it small tumours in the body parts

mis·cel·la·ne·ous (mĭs’ə-lā’nē-əs) adj.Made up of a variety of parts or ingredients.Having a variety of characteristics, abilities, or appearances.Concerned with diverse subjects or aspects.Tumour or tumor = mass or swelling. It can be benign (usually one can live with it) or malignant (dangerous and can be life-threatening).I am not sure what context you are talking about this miscellaneous tumours. If it is in a text book, it refers to variety or different types of tumors. If it is a code for diagnosis, then it could be other tumors which are not commonly coded or categorized. Or the computer dictionary does not include that tumor, so it is left unspecified or coded as miscellaneous tumor.It is not a particular kind of tumor. It is just a generic group of different kinds of tumors.Hope this helps.Good luck.

Miscellaneous means: Consisting of a variety of ingredients or parts. Having diverse characteristics, abilities or appearancesTumor or tumour literally means “swelling”, and is sometimes still used with that meaning. Tumor meaning swelling is one of the five classical characteristics of inflammation. However, the term is now primarily used to denote abnormal growth of tissue. This growth can be either malignant or benign. It is similar in meaning to a neoplasm.For further information about the types of tumors go to source below.
