What are different types of malignant cancer?

"Malignant cancer" is a general term used to describe the uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells at any point in the body. Cancer cells are damaged cells that do not die. These cells continue to grow from control and create masses of cancer cells called tumors. When the term "malignant cancer" is used, it describes any of the more than 200 cancer forms. Six categories are used to classify cancer: cancer, sarcoma, leukemia, lymphoma, myeloma and central nervous system cancer (CNS). Cancer, which began in these areas but has spread to other areas, are known as secondary cancers. Examples are basal cells, spinocellular and small cell cancers. Any area that contains epithelial cells can develop cancer. Sarcomas use abnormal mesenchymal cells in connective tissue for tumor form. The affected connective tissues include cartilage and tendons. Sarcomas soft tissues are subtype. Form in soft tissues that are located inContent tissue such as blood vessels and muscles. Lymphoma is a malignant cancer that can also start in the cells of the immune system. On the other hand, as long as it metastasizes, leukemia works in the bone marrow to form abnormal red blood cells.

Another form of malignant cancer is myeloma. This cancer also occurs in the bone marrow, similar to leukemia. Unlike leukemia, however, myeloma affects plasma cells that are responsible for the production of antibodies. Myeloma can be multiple or lonely. Multiple myeloma affects more places and lonely myeloma affects only one site.

malignant cancer, which begins in the brain or spinal cord, is classified as a cancer of the central nervous system. This type of cancer affects cells in the spinal cord and brain, causing to grow from control and form tumors. CNS tumors can cause problems with basic body functions and may be difficult to remove.

treatment of malignant cancer depends on the type of cancer, its location and its aggressiveness. Common treatment generally includes combinations. Doctors usually remove as much tumor as possible and follow chemotherapy, radiation therapy or immunotherapy. Cancer that affects bone marrow is usually recommended by bone marrow transplantation.
