- Increased abdominal girth: In very voluminous tumors that affect abdominal organs, a mass (lump) may appear that can be felt in the abdomen.
- Pain: The mass or lump that appears may or may not be painful, although it is most often painless at first. The pain can occur due to the growth of the tumor itself or due to the involvement of other nearby structures such as nerves or muscles.
