Cancers are diseases that involve the abnormal and excessive growth of cells which have the potential to invade or spread to other parts of the body. Most cases of cancers are due to environmental factors such as Tobacco use, diet, obesity, infections, radiation and environmental pollutants.
Tumours are divided into two: benign and malignant tumours. The clinical features of cancers depend on the region of involvement but generally include swelling, loss of function, pain, abnormal spontaneous bleeding, unexplained weight loss, prolonged cough and disturbance of movement of the bowels. Common sites of cancers are the lungs, stomach, liver, colon, rectum and breast. No part of the human body is exempted from cancers.
There are many treatment options for cancers. These include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunotherapy, and hormonal therapy. The treatment depends on the site, type and the stage of the cancer. The management of cancers is multidisciplinary.

The face is the central focus in interpersonal relationships; therefore any alterations in the facial appearance will have serious emotional and psychological effects on an individual because the facial region is more apparent than any other region of the human body.
