    • B.

    • C.

      Clinically confused with undifferentiated tumours

    • D.

    Correct Answer
    B. Slow growing
    Explanation
    Lymphoma of the thymus is a type of cancer that affects the thymus gland, which is located in the chest. It is characterized by the abnormal growth of lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell. This type of lymphoma is typically more common in males rather than females, making the statement "More common in females" false. Lymphoma of the thymus is known to be slow-growing, meaning it progresses at a relatively slow rate. It can often be confused with undifferentiated tumors, as the symptoms and presentation may be similar. Additionally, it may present with respiratory distress and dysphagia, which are symptoms caused by the tumor's location in the chest. Therefore, the statement "Slow growing" is the correct answer.

Paget's disease of the breast is a rare form of breast cancer that affects the skin of the nipple and areola. CEA can be used as a marker to help diagnose and monitor the progression of Paget's disease of the breast. Therefore, the presence of CEA is indicative of Paget's disease of the breast.

However, subcutaneous mastectomy is not the initial treatment of choice for gynaecomastia. The treatment approach depends on the underlying cause and may include medication, lifestyle changes, or surgery.
