Explain what carcinoma in situ is?
Give this one a try later!
A localized pre-invasive lesion that can typically be surgically removed or
treated and recurrence is less likely
How does radiation kill cancer cells?
Give this one a try later!
It uses high-energy particles or waves to destroy or damage cancer cells.
This leads to the creation of free radicals, which damage cell structures.
, What is a polyp?
Give this one a try later!
A growth that projects from a mucosal surface such as the intestine, it can
be benign or malignant.
What are the 7 risk factors that can lead to the development of cancer?
Give this one a try later!
Risk factors linked to cancer include heredity, hormonal factors, obesity,
immunologic mechanisms, environmental agents such as chemicals,
radiation, and cancer-causing viruses.
Describe cell cohesiveness and adhesion
Give this one a try later!
cancerous cells do not stick together, permitting the surface cells of the
tumor to shed into the surrounding body fluids or secretions
What are the 4 oncogenic viruses that can induce cancer?
Give this one a try later!
Human papillomavirus (HPV), Epstein-Barr virus (EBV), hepatitis B virus
(HBV), and human herpesvirus-8 (HHV-8), which causes Kaposi sarcoma in
