Malignant Tumors

Malignant tumors are an uncontrolled growth of cells which can spread to other parts of the body and can be life-threatening. They arise when DNA damage in a normal cell causes it to misbehave and continue to divide uncontrollably, leading to a tumor. Treatment of malignant tumors can include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and targeted therapy. Early diagnosis and treatment are critical for improving the chance of successful treatment.
