Carcinoma, a common type of cancer originating from epithelial cells, represents a significant health concern worldwide. This malignancy arises in various organs, such as the lungs, breasts, prostate, colon, and skin, among others. Carcinomas are characterized by the uncontrolled proliferation of abnormal cells that infiltrate adjacent tissues and can disseminate through the bloodstream or lymphatic system, leading to metastasis. Understanding the etiology, risk factors, diagnostic modalities, treatment strategies, and ongoing research in carcinoma is crucial for improving patient outcomes. This abstract provides an overview of carcinoma, emphasizing its diverse types, associated risk factors, diagnostic approaches, therapeutic interventions, and emerging areas of research aimed at advancing our understanding and management of this formidable disease.
