malignant
In this context, in my opinion, the physician means that the clinical suspect is that of a "cocal cord cancer". These terms are widely used in Italian medical reports (e.g. secondarismo, eteroplasia, lesione discariocinetica, etc)

heteroplastic
as opposed to eterogeneo (heterogeneous)
That is, literary, formed from something other. So, strictly speaking, neither meta– or neoplastic.

Thanks,Mirra.In fact,"heterogeneous"is dead-wrong(healthy vocal cords are morphologically heterogenous anyway).However,I thought better of interfering post-factum,for many misconstrue such interferences as misplaced competitiveness.Very frustrating,that
