Answers
GPT 3.5
A tumor is an abnormal mass of tissue that forms when cells in the body divide and grow uncontrollably. Tumors can be either benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous).
1. Benign Tumors: Benign tumors are non-cancerous growths that do not spread to other parts of the body. They are usually localized and can be removed through surgery. While benign tumors are not typically life-threatening, they can cause problems if they grow large enough to put pressure on surrounding tissues or organs.
2. Malignant Tumors: Malignant tumors are cancerous growths that can invade nearby tissues and spread to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or lymphatic system. Malignant tumors can be life-threatening if not treated promptly and aggressively. Treatment for malignant tumors usually involves a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, radiation therapy, and targeted therapy.
