    Cancer is malignancy. Only a small percentage of people develop malignant tumors. Cancer is the opposite of benign tumors, it is malignant, highly metastasized, and grows rapidly, and tumor cells will multiply rapidly in a short period of time, which will then affect the normal operation of the human body.

    In addition to not listening to the command of the human body, some tumors may also harass the neighbors and expand everywhere, and these guys are malignant tumors. Benign tumors are all "horizontal in the nest" and generally do not go out to cause trouble, such as body surface lipoma, breast fibroadenoma, etc.

    Malignant tumors have two things in common, one is invasive, and the other is the characteristics of metastasis, malignant tumors will not only cause damage to the normal tissues around them, but also tumor cells will be transferred to other tissues and organs through blood circulation, lymphatic circulation or exfoliation and implantation, which directly threatens the life of patients. Definition of tumor: a new organism formed by the proliferation of local histiocytes under the action of various tumorigenic factors, because this new organism mostly presents a space-occupying lumpy protrusion, also known as vegetation.

    There is also the term tumor virus, when I was in graduate school, the laboratory was called the tumor virus room, and the research center was Epstein-Barr virus, but also some viruses that may cause blood diseases, so this name is incorrect, it should be called the cancer and tumor virus room. Malignant tumors from epithelial cells are called carcinomas, mesenchymal tissues are called sarcomas, and embryonal tumors are called blastomas, but some malignant tumors still use the name "tumor" or "disease", such as Hodgkin lymphoma, leukemia, etc.

    **Malignant tumors of epithelial tissues, these tumors are collectively referred to as carcinomas. For example, squamous epithelial carcinoma is a malignant tumor of the squamous epithelium. Adenocarcinoma is a malignant tumor of the glandular and ductal epithelium.

    Generally speaking, cancer is the body's cells under the action of oncogenic factors, the cell's genes change, the growth of cells is uncontrolled, and the tumor grows continuously, and the cancer can break through the envelope, invade the surrounding tissues and organs, and metastasize to distant places.

    Because tumors and cancer are not exactly the same thing, what we usually call cancer refers to malignant tumors, and tumors are divided into benign tumors and malignant tumors, and if it is a benign tumor, it is not cancer.

    No. If the tumor is benign, it is a tumor, and if the tumor is malignant, it is cancer, and the two are related.

    This is because many doctors want to hide the patient's condition, so they often tell white lies and will tell the patient's family the truth.

    In fact, tumors are also divided into benign and malignant, generally benign tumors will be called tumors, and malignant tumors will be called cancer.

    Benign tumors cause little damage to the body, unless they are born in important parts that compress tissues and organs, and benign tumors will only grow and will not spread, and most of them will not cause serious complications or cause death of patients.

    Malignant tumors are destructive to the body, cancer cells will spread and metastasize, excrete toxic substances, rob normal cells of nutrition, damage primary organs, compress surrounding tissues and organs, reduce body immunity, cause patients to cause systemic attrition symptoms, gradually aggravate the harm to patients, and finally serious complications, multi-organ failure, leading to death.
