The review presents modern ideas about the origin of tumor vessels and the features of their morphology. The various approaches to the classification of tumor vessel types and to the assessment of their clinical and prognostic significance are described. Also, the main problems associated with the use of angiogenesis blockers in the treatment of malignancies and their possible solutions are reflected in the review.
