Cancer is disease in which an abnormal growth of cells, in some cases, can spread (metastasize) uncontrollably. In basic terminology, the human body forms new cells as needed while replacing old cells when they die. Sometimes, cells grow even when you don’t need them to and old cells don’t die when they should. Those extra cells form a mass, called a tumor, and can either be benign or malignant.
