Tumour Types

Cancer is a group of diseases, where changes in cells lead to uncontrolled growth and division of cells. The tumours that result from cancer (uncontrolled division of cells) are either malignant or benign (harmless).

Malignant tumours

Malignant tumours

  • Malignant tumours can invade neighbouring tissues and spread throughout the body in the blood, leading to the creation of more secondary tumours.
Benign tumours

Benign tumours

  • Benign tumours stay in a specific part of the body, often within a membrane.
