Adenocarcinomas

Adenocarcinomas are a type of cancer that affects the cells that line ducts and glands in the body. They are the most common type of cancer, accounting for over half of all cancer cases. Adenocarcinomas are found in many different organs, including the breasts, lungs, colon, pancreas, and prostate. Treatment depends on the size and location of the tumor, but may involve chemotherapy, radiation, and surgery. Early detection is key to successful treatment, so regular screenings are important for those at risk for developing this type of cancer.

Lung cancer is uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells that start off in one or both lungs; usually in the cells that line the air passages. Abnormal cells do not develop into healthy lung tissue, they divide rapidly and form tumors. As tumors become larger and more numerous, they undermine the lung's ability to provide bloodstream with oxygen.
