Cancer Information
Cancer, cancerous tumor, syn. Malignancy in medicine called a malignant (malignant) tumor – a malignant tissue neoplasm (neoplasia). In a narrower sense, the malignant epithelial tumors (carcinomas), and malignant mesenchymal tumors (sarcomas) are meant. Colloquially be the malignant haematological malignancies as cancers such as leukemia, as “blood cancer” means.
All other tumors, which include benign (benign) neoplasms that are not a “benign cancer” or some form of cancer. These are tissue proliferation, or masses in the body that do not form metastases. This concerns both the swelling and inflammation in benign neoplasms (new growths of body tissue through regulation deficiencies of cell growth).
Benign tumors including moles and fatty tumors (lipomas) are in the technical language not referred to as cancer, but they can still be dangerous because they can degenerate, or impair the function of vital organs (such as the cerebellar pontine angle tumor). Cancer is a generic term in common usage for a variety of related diseases in which cells grow uncontrollably, to divide, and may displace and destroy healthy tissue. Cancer has different triggers that lead ultimately to a disruption of all genetically controlled balance between cell cycle (growth and division) and cell death (apoptosis).
Devoting themselves to the cancer, the medical discipline of oncology.
