Özet
Cancer is a group of diseases characterized by uncontrolled growth and spread of abnormal cells. It can develop in almost any part of the body and spread to other parts through the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Cancer is caused by genetic mutations that can be inherited or acquired through certain risk factors such as unhealthy diet, tobacco use, and exposure to chemicals and radiation. Prevention and early detection are important in the treatment of cancer. However, depending on the type and stage of cancer, there are different treatment options such as surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
