Introduction
Introduction of Cancer Cancer, in simple terms, means an abnormal and uncontrolled growth of cells in the body.

During the process of growth of cancerous tissue, the normal tissues of the body are destroyed and their functioning is affected. Cancer is not a single disease and there more than 100 types of cancers. It is the second commonest cause of death in the world.
