Because cancer can occur in the cells of virtually any bone, tissue or
organ throughout the body, there are many types of the disease. By definition,
cancer is an uncontrolled growth of abnormal cells. Cancer cells rapidly
reproduce despite restriction of space, nutrients, or signals sent from
the body to stop reproduction. Additionally, cancer that begins in one
area may spread into other parts of the body.

some of the more common are listed below.
