Intro cancer
1.
2. Cancer drives form Greek words carcinos and carcinoma
Carcinos and carcinoma describe the tumors
Cancer called "karkinos.
3. Cancer refers to the uncontrolled growth of
abnormal cells in the body.
Complex group of diseases
It begin from any part of body.
Made up of trillions of cells.
4. Cancer Cells Normal Cells
grow in the absence of signals grow when signals receives
Cells move from one part to another Cells do not move from one part to
another
blood vessels grow toward tumors remove waste products from tumors
immune system damaged immune system do not damaged
multiple changes occur
in chromosomes,
multiple changes do not occur
in chromosomes
rely on different kinds of nutrients Do not rely on different kinds of
nutrients
5. In ancient Egypt in 1500 BC world's oldest recorded case of
cancer .
At that time eight cases of tumors brought
Treated with cauterization (destroyed tissue with a hot
instrument called "the fire drill." )
At that time considered that there was no treatment for the
disease only palliative treatment.
6. It is a genetic disease
Caused by changes to genes because
Error occur in cell division
Damage DNA
Inherited from parents.
7. It spread such ways
1. Spread from the place where it first formed to another place
in the body is called metastatic cancer.
2. The process by which cancer cells spread to other parts of
the body is called metastasis.
8. These are most common causes of cancer such as
1) Smoking and tobacco
2) Diet
3) Physical activity
4) Sun and other types of radiation
5) Viruses and other infections

vessels, lymph vessels, and fibrous tissue .
Leukemia
It begin in the blood-forming tissue of the bone marrow . it do not
form solid tumors.
Lymphoma
It begins in lymphocytes (t cells or b cells).
13. Multiple myeloma
It begins in plasma cells, another type of immune cell.
Melanoma
It begins in cells that become melanocytes.
14. These are more common treatment of cancer such as
a) Surgery,
b) Chemotherapy
c) radiation therapy
d) interventional radiology
e) Immunotherapy
