Definition:
A carcinoma is a cancerous tumour that starts in tissues covering or lining
various organs of the body or in glands, such as skin, uterus, prostate, breast,
or stomach. Carcinomas tend to infiltrate into nearby tissues. They may also
spread to distant organs such as lung, bone, liver, or the brain. Carcinomas are
the most common type of cancer.
