Any uncontrolled, abnormal growth of cells in the body which is causing damage to body tissue is termed cancer.

In the past decade, cancer cases have risen to the top ranks of death-causing diseases. With a better diagnosis, we can understand its occurrence and growth in a better manner.

It has a separate department for itself as it comprises many types and grades and can practically involve any body part.

We have many options like surgery, medication, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy to treat, shrink, or reduce cancerous growth.

As there are a variety of cancers so the treatment regime would be different for every patient depending on the type, size, location, and stage of cancer.

Complete treatment may comprise primary treatment aiming to remove cancerous growth or kill cancer cells—for example, Surgical intervention.

Adjuvant treatment focuses on leftover cancer parts and prevents the reoccurrence of cancer, for example - 

  • Radiation
  • Chemotherapy
  • Hormone Therapy

Palliative treatment is given to overcome the side effects of cancer and other therapies.

The cost of Cancer Treatment includes:

  • Preoperative diagnostic tests cost, which may include X-rays, CT scans, Biopsy, Tumor Marker, PET Scans, etc.

  • Post-operative cost (there might be a need for Chemotherapy or Radiotherapy before or post-surgery)

Success Rate

The five-year survival rate is 60-70% overall. However, it depends on several factors like the type of cancer, stage of cancer, location, and metastasis or not.

The age, gender, and overall health of the patient are essential in the survival rate.

Cancerous growth is a consequence of genetic changes that differ in every person.

With further progression, more changes will likely happen in the body and the genetic composition.
