Can you get Cancer anywhere on your body?


Is there a such thing as Vaginal Cancer inside the actual Vagina. I'm not talking about cervical Cancer but the Vagina itself. How do they treat that?

I cannot think of any body part that does not get cancer. Here is a few you might not have considered.....
You used vaginal cancer as an example: Cancer of the vagina, is a rare kind of cancer in women. In vaginal cancer, cancer (malignant) cells are found in the tissues of the vagina. http://www.mamashealth.com/cancer/vagcan...
Cancers that affect the eyeball are called intraocular (within the eye) cancers. Cancers of the tissues that surround the orbit are called orbital cancers. Cancers that develop in the structures such as the eyelids and tear glands are called adnexal cancers. http://www.cancer.org/docroot/cri/conten...
Cancer of the penis (penile cancer) is a malignant growth of cells in the tissue and/or external area of the penis. Penis cancer is a very rare disease that is generally an aggressive form of cancer that has a tendency to spread. http://menshealth.about.com/cs/menonly/a...

Yes, cancer is the word for the time when your cells continue to grow execessively.

yes. Any cell in the body can turn into a cancerous cell - given the right stimuli.

I would think you could have cancer show up anywhere...

Yes there is. You should ask a doc for that, or at least doctors that stay up to date with medicine updates

Yes, you can get cancer anywhere on your body. Sad isnt it?!! There is also such a thing as vaginal cancer. Im not too sure how they treat it but i would think that they treat it as any other cancer.

Yes . There is a cancer of vagina(not cervix).It is amenable to radiotherapy. Crystalline lens(of eye),hair,nails are the only exceptions from becoming cancerous.

Yes, cancer can be initiated in any cell, here the cell behaves in the opposite way to our early formation. Stem cells are formed which differentiate to have advanced functions. In a cancer cell they take opposite path and just divide losing their identity more and more.

As a specialist i can say Cancer is a class of diseases characterized by uncontrolled cell division and the ability of these cells to invade other tissues, either by direct growth into adjacent tissue (invasion) or by migration of cells to distant sites (metastasis). This unregulated growth is caused by a series of acquired or inherited mutations to DNA within cells, damaging genetic information that define the cell functions and removing normal control of cell division. It is adiseases in which abnormal cells divide and grow unchecked. Cancer can spread from its original site to other parts of the body and can also be fatal if not treated adequately.
For more information about cancer treatment go at:

these so called medical experts neglected to say there are parts of your body that don't get cancer. your fingernails, your eyebrows, eyelass's and toe nails.
I am iffy on teeth but I kind of don't think you can get cancer of the teeth specificly, you can get gum cancer, but we are talking where you cannot get it correct.
