A tumor is an abnormal growth of cells in the body. It can develop in any part of the body and can be benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Benign tumors do not spread to other parts of the body and are usually not life-threatening. Malignant tumors, on the other hand, can invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body through a process called metastasis, which makes them potentially life-threatening. Tumors can occur in different organs and may cause various symptoms depending on their location and type. Regular screenings, early detection, and timely treatment are important for managing and treating tumors.
A tumor is an abnormal growth of cells that forms when cells divide and multiply more than they should, or when cells do not die when they should.
