Cancer Attack<\/span><\/p>\n

With over 200 different types of cancer, this disease can attack any group of cells in the body as well as any of the major organs in the body.<\/span><\/p>\n

Cancer can begin in one part of the body and travel through both the lymphatic system and the circulatory system. The uncontrolled growth of cancer that spreads is called metastasis.<\/span><\/p>\n
