Cancer Effecting on Children

Image
The most common  children's cancer  is leukemia. Cancers  that  affect children exclude brain tumors, lymphoma, and soft tissue sarcoma. Symptoms and treatment depend on the cancer  type and innovative. Treatments include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, stem cell transplants, and targeted therapy. The types of cancers that occur most often in children are different from those seen in adults. The most common cancers of children are: Leukemia Brain and spinal cord tumors Neuroblastoma Wilms tumor Lymphoma (including both Hodgkin and non-Hodgkin) Retinoblastoma Bone cancer (including osteosarcoma and Ewing sarcoma) Other types of cancers are rare in children. In very unusual cases, children may even develop cancers that are much more common in adults.                           Leukemia Leukemias cancers of the bone marrow and blood, are the most collective childhood cancers. They reason for about 30% of all cancers in children. The most cor

Eye Cancer: Things to Know

Image
Cancer of the eye is rare. It damages eyelid by binding of muscles, skin and nerves. When the tumor starts inside the eyeball it is known intraocular cancer. The common intraocular cancers are melanoma and lymphoma. In children, the common eye cancer is retinoblastoma, which is the cancer of the cells of the retina. Cancer cells can spread from eye to other parts of the body when cancer antigen cells begin to grow out of control. Treatment for eye cancer varies- they can be treated surgically, through radiation therapy, freezing/ heat therapy, or laser therapy.  The eye has 3 major parts: the eyeball, the orbit, and the adnexal structures. Parts of the eye including the conjunctiva, anterior chamber, cornea, lens, iris, ciliary body, orbit, optic nerve, retina and sclera.                                         Eyeball The main part of the eye is the eyeball which is mostly filled with a jelly-like material called vitreous humor. The eyeball has 3 main layers: th

Bladder cancer

Bladder cancer is a cancer that forms in tissues of the bladder. Most bladder cancers are transitional cell carcinomas (cancer that begins in cells that normally make up the inner lining of the bladder). Other types include squamous cell carcinoma or adenocarcinoma, which develop in the inner lining of the bladder. Bladder cancer forms in urinary bladder, the muscular sac that stores urine. This balloon-shaped tissue is sited in your pelvis. Urine made by the kidneys drives into your bladder for storage. The bladder covers of several layers, containing a muscular wall. The muscle eases to allow the bladder to fill with urine, and contracts to sanction urination. Cancer is a disease in which anomalous cells grow out of control. Cancer cells can form tumor masses and may attack other nearby tissues.                                         Types of Bladder Cancer Most bladder cancer improves in the tissue that lines the inside of the bladder. This tissue is calle

Cancer Biomarkers

Image
A cancer biomarker mentions to a material or process that is indicative of the attendance of cancer in the body. A biomarker may be a molecule secreted by a tumor or a precise reaction of the body to the presence of cancer. Biological fragment convert in blood, other body fluids, or tissues that is a sign of a normal or abnormal process, or of a state or disease. A biomarker may be used to see how well the body proceeds to a action for a disease or condition. One of the most well-known cancer biomarkers is Prostate-specific antigen, or PSA, and higher levels of PSA in men tend to signal for prostate cancer. Actually, cancer biomarkers are more than just a signal of the disease, and have many roles in the competition against cancer.
