uncertain behavior is a dx that is rendered by the pathologist when the cellular activity observed is uncertain at to its morphology. Unspecified is sometimes called a working dx, and is used when a preliminary diagnostic workup is inconclusive, most commonly used when the decision comes back as a tumor.

A neoplasm is an abnormal growth on the body. Neoplasms can be benign or malignant. Neoplasms can be diagnosed with lab tests, imaging tests, and biopsy. These tests can determine if a neoplasm is benign or malignant. Treatment for malignant neoplasms depends on where they are located and if they have spread.
