Precancerous Tumors

Precancerous tumors are abnormal growths that may become cancer if not treated. They can be found in various parts of the body, including the skin, cervix, and gastrointestinal tract. Precancerous tumors are often asymptomatic, meaning they produce no signs or symptoms, making early detection and treatment difficult. Treatment typically includes surgical removal of the tumor or targeted radiation therapy, depending on the type of tumor. Early detection and treatment of precancerous tumors increases the chances of successful treatment and helps reduce the risk of developing cancer.
