Disease/Condition Glossary

Breast cancer: It is a type of cancer that develops in breast cells that are stimulated by a female sex hormone called estrogen. Breast cancer may form in lobules (glands that produce milk), ducts of the breast (the pathway that brings milk from glands to the nipple), in the fatty tissue or the fibrous connective tissue within the breast. The tumor cells invade other healthy breast cells and can travel to lymph nodes which are a primary pathway for the cancer cells to move to other parts of the body. 

Lung cancer: It happens when cells in the lung begin to grow in an uncontrolled manner. The most common form of lung cancer is non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It happens when cells that form the lining of the lung start growing uncontrollably. Persons who smoke are at high risk of lung cancer. A common symptom of lung cancer is a cough that does not go easily followed by shortness of breath. Cancerous cells of the lung spread off and travel through the bloodstream to distant regions of the body and grow.

Pancreatic cancer: It is described as a cancerous growth in the pancreas which normally begins in the cells that generate the juices. Juices are produced by the pancreas ( a gland present behind your stomach) help in the breakdown of food and hormones which help in controlling blood sugar levels.

Kidney cancer: Kidneys are the organs on either side of your backbone directly above your waist. The tubes present inside clean and filter your blood, taking out waste foods and making urine. Kidney cancer produces in the lining of tiny tubes inside your kidneys.
