Carcinoma

  • Carcinoma in situ
    Carcinoma in situ (CIS), also known as in situ neoplasm, is a group of abnormal cells.
  • Breast cancer
    Breast cancer is cancer that develops from breast tissue.
  • Melanoma
    Melanoma, also known as malignant melanoma, is a type of cancer that develops from the pigment-containing cells known as melanocytes.
  • Prostate cancer
    Prostate cancer, also known as carcinoma of the prostate, is the development of cancer in the prostate, a gland in the male reproductive system.
  • Ovarian cancer
    Ovarian cancer is a cancer that forms in an ovary.
  • Pancoast tumor
    A Pancoast tumor, also called a pulmonary sulcus tumor or superior sulcus tumor, is a tumor of the pulmonary apex.
  • Skin cancer
    Skin cancers are cancers that arise from the skin.
  • Hepatocellular carcinoma
    Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), also called malignant hepatoma, is the most common type of liver cancer.
  • Renal cell carcinoma
    Renal cell carcinoma (RCC) is a kidney cancer that originates in the lining of the proximal convoluted tubule, a part of the very small tubes in the kidney that transport waste molecules from the blood to the urine.
  • Cervical cancer
    Cervical cancer is a cancer arising from the cervix.
  • Adenocarcinoma
    Adenocarcinoma (/ˌædᵻnoʊkɑːrsᵻˈnoʊmə/; plural adenocarcinomas or adenocarcinomata /ˌædᵻnoʊkɑːrsᵻˈnoʊmᵻtə/) is a type of cancerous tumor that can occur in several parts of the body.
  • Esophageal cancer
    Esophageal cancer (or oesophageal cancer) is cancer arising from the esophagus—the food pipe that runs between the throat and the stomach.
  • Basal-cell carcinoma
    Basal cell carcinoma (BCC) (also known as basalioma or basal cell cancer), is the most common skin cancer, and one of the most common cancers in the United States.
  • Adenocarcinoma in situ of the lung
    In situ pulmonary adenocarcinoma (AIS), previously called "Bronchioloalveolar carcinoma" (BAC), is a term describing certain variants of lung cancer arising in the distal bronchioles or alveoli that initially exhibit a specific non-invasive growth pattern.
  • Laryngeal cancer
    Laryngeal cancer, also known as cancer of the larynx or laryngeal carcinoma, are mostly squamous cell carcinomas, reflecting their origin from the skin of the larynx.
  • Bladder cancer
    Bladder cancer is any of several types of cancer arising from the epithelial lining (i.e., the urothelium) of the urinary bladder.
  • Lung cancer
    Lung cancer, also known as lung carcinoma, is a malignant lung tumor characterized by uncontrolled cell growth in tissues of the lung.
  • Verrucous carcinoma
    Verrucous carcinoma (VC) is an uncommon variant of squamous cell carcinoma.
  • Primary peritoneal carcinoma
    Primary peritoneal cancer or carcinoma is also known as serous surface papillary carcinoma, primary peritoneal carcinoma, extra-ovarian serous carcinoma, primary serous papillary carcinoma, psammomacarcinoma.
  • Conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma
    Conjunctival Squamous Cell Carcinoma (Conjunctival SCC) and corneal intraepithelial neoplasia comprise what are called Ocular Surface Squamous Cell Neoplasias.
  • Vaginal cancer
    Vaginal cancer is any type of cancer that forms in the tissues of the vagina.
  • Transitional cell carcinoma
    Transitional cell carcinoma (TCC, also urothelial cell carcinoma or UCC) is a type of cancer that typically occurs in the urinary system: the kidney, urinary bladder, and accessory organs.
  • Adenosquamous carcinoma
    Adenosquamous carcinoma is a type of cancer that contains two types of cells: squamous cells (thin, flat cells that line certain organs) and gland-like cells.
  • Squamous cell carcinoma
    Squamous cell carcinoma or squamous cell cancer (SCC or SqCC) is a cancer of a kind of epithelial cell, the squamous cell.
  • Ductal carcinoma
    Ductal carcinoma is a type of tumor that primarily presents in the ducts of a gland.
  • Small-cell carcinoma
    Small-cell carcinoma (also known as "small-cell lung cancer", or "oat-cell carcinoma") is a type of highly malignant cancer that most commonly arises within the lung, although it can occasionally arise in other body sites, such as the cervix, prostate, and gastrointestinal tract.
  • Sarcomatoid carcinoma
    Sarcomatoid carcinoma is a relatively uncommon form of cancer whose malignant cells have histological, cytological, or molecular properties of both epithelial tumors ("carcinoma") and mesenchymal tumors ("sarcoma").
