Unlike solid tumors that form a mass, blood cancers involve the abnormal growth of blood or immune cells, affecting how the body produces and functions these cells.Types of Blood CancersThese cancers interfere with the normal process of making healthy blood cells. As abnormal cells multiply, they crowd out healthy ones, preventing the blood from fighting infection, carrying oxygen, and controlling bleeding.There are three main types of blood cancer:LeukemiaLymphomaMyeloma (Multiple Myeloma) Cancers & Diseases [ Bone Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/bone-cancer)Bone cancer is a rare cancer that begins in the cells of the bone, most often in the long bones of the arms and legs or in the pelvis. It makes up less than one percent of all cancers, and many bone tumors are actually benign rather than cancerous. Primary bone cancers are different from cancers that start in another part of the body and spread to the bone. Those are considered metastatic cancers and are treated based on where they began.There are several types of primary bone cancer. Some occur more often in children and teens, while others are seen mainly in adults. Treatment depends on the type and location of the tumor and may include surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, or a combination of these options. Early evaluation with a specialist helps guide the most effective plan for care. Cancers & Diseases [ Breast Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/breast-cancer)Breast cancer develops when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in breast tissue. It often begins in the ducts that carry milk to the nipple or in the lobules that produce milk, but it can arise in other areas of the breast as well. While breast cancer can occur in both women and men, it is far more common in women and is one of the most frequently diagnosed cancers in the United States.Thanks to increased awareness, screening, and advances in treatment, survival rates continue to improve. Earlier detection through mammograms and a more personalized approach to care have led to better outcomes and a deeper understanding of the disease.Having breast cancer can feel overwhelming, but effective treatment options are available. Many people benefit from a combination of therapies tailored to their specific type and stage of breast cancer, as well as their overall health and preferences. Cancers & Diseases [ Cervical Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/cervical-cancer)Cervical cancer occurs when abnormal cells grow uncontrollably in the cervix, the lower part of the uterus that connects to the vagina. Most cases are caused by human papillomavirus (HPV), a common sexually transmitted infection. While most HPV infections clear on their own, some can persist and lead to precancerous changes or cervical cancer over time.Regular screening through Pap tests and HPV testing can detect abnormal cell changes early, often before cancer develops. When found and treated at an early stage, cervical cancer can often be successfully managed.Cervical cancer is one of the most common cancers in women worldwide, but routine screening and HPV vaccination have significantly reduced rates in the United States. Early detection and preventive care remain key to improving outcomes and reducing risk. Cancers & Diseases [ Colon Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/colon-cancer)Colon cancer starts in the large intestine, or colon, the last part of the digestive tract. It most often develops in adults over 50 but can occur at any age. The disease typically begins as small, noncancerous growths called polyps on the inner lining of the colon. While most polyps are harmless, some can slowly turn into cancer over time. Because polyps usually cause few or no symptoms, regular screening is the best way to detect and remove them early, before they become cancerous.Colon cancer is sometimes referred to as colorectal cancer, a term that includes cancers of both the colon and rectum.Our colon cancer specialists use the latest, evidence-based technologies and treatments to provide advanced, personalized care. From early diagnosis to recovery, our multidisciplinary team is with you every step of the way to guide, support, and treat you with expertise and compassion. Cancers & Diseases [ Esophageal Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/esophageal-cancer)Esophageal cancer begins in the esophagus, the long, hollow tube that carries food and liquids from the throat to the stomach. Although relatively rare in the United States, accounting for about 1% of all cancer diagnoses, it is more common in men and occurs most often in people over age 65.Esophageal cancer develops when cells in the lining of the esophagus change and begin to grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor that can occur anywhere along the esophagus. Over time, these cancerous cells can invade nearby tissues or spread to other parts of the body. Cancers & Diseases [ Fallopian Tube Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/fallopian-tube-cancer)Fallopian tube cancer is a rare type of cancer that begins in one or both of the fallopian tubes, the small ducts that connect the ovaries to the uterus. It develops when normal cells in the lining of the tubes change and grow uncontrollably, forming a tumor.The most common type is adenocarcinoma, which starts in glandular cells, though other rare forms can occur. Fallopian tube cancer is closely related to ovarian cancer, and research suggests that some ovarian cancers may actually begin in the fallopian tubes before spreading to the ovaries.Because symptoms can be vague or similar to other conditions, early detection often happens during evaluation for other pelvic concerns. Cancers & Diseases [ Kidney Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/kidney-cancer)Kidney cancer begins in the kidneys, two bean-shaped organs located behind the abdomen that filter waste from the blood and produce urine. Each kidney connects to the bladder through a ureter, helping regulate fluid balance, minerals, and blood pressure.The most common type of kidney cancer in adults is renal cell carcinoma (RCC). Less common forms include transitional cell carcinoma and Wilms' tumor, which occurs primarily in children. Advances in imaging technology, such as CT scans, have led to earlier detection, when kidney cancers are often smaller and easier to treat. Cancers & Diseases [ Laryngeal Cancer ](/all-cancers-diseases/laryngeal-cancer)Laryngeal cancer begins in the voice box (larynx), a small organ in the throat that allows air to pass into the lungs, protects the airway when swallowing, and houses the vocal cords. Most laryngeal cancers start in the thin lining of the larynx and are often linked to smoking and heavy alcohol use.Although this type of cancer is relatively uncommon, early symptoms such as persistent hoarseness, cough, and sore throat make it possible to detect and treat sooner. Prompt evaluation of voice changes or swallowing problems is key to finding laryngeal cancer at an earlier, more treatable stage. Cancers & Diseases [ Leukemia ](/all-cancers-diseases/leukemia)Leukemia is a type of blood cancer that begins in the bone marrow, where blood cells are produced. It causes the body to make large numbers of abnormal white blood cells that do not function properly. These cells crowd out healthy blood cells, affecting the body's ability to fight infection, carry oxygen, and control bleeding. ## Pagination - Previous page ‹ - [ Page1](?page=0 "Current page") - [ Page2](?page=1 "Go to page 2") - [ Page3](?page=2 "Go to page 3") - [ Next page Next › ](?page=1 "Go to next page")
