After defining a number of essential terms and recalling the great many synonyms used in the literature, the authors discuss the macroscopic and histological appearance of villous tumours. They emphasize the importance of a good methodology, the limitations of biopsies and the fact that the prognosis of a lesion can only be established after examination of all of the specimen.
