Detailed explanation-1: -Metastatic cancer occurs when cancer cells break off from the original tumor, enter your bloodstream or lymph system and spread to other areas of your body. Most metastatic cancers are manageable, but not curable.

Detailed explanation-2: -Metastasis. In metastasis, cancer cells break away from where they first formed (primary cancer), travel through the blood or lymph system, and form new tumors (metastatic tumors) in other parts of the body. The metastatic tumor is the same type of cancer as the primary tumor.

Detailed explanation-3: -Metastatic cancer is a cancer that has spread from the part of the body where it started (the primary site) to other parts of the body. When cancer cells break away from a tumor, they can travel to other parts of the body through the bloodstream or the lymph system.

Detailed explanation-4: -A lymphoma is a malignant tumor composed of lymphocytes, and (less commonly) histiocytes, that arise from lymph nodes, the spleen, or other sites of lymphoid tissue anywhere in the body.

Detailed explanation-5: -Metastases can also develop when cancer cells from the main tumor break off and grow in nearby areas, such as in the liver, lungs, or bones. Any type of cancer can spread. Whether this happens depends on several factors, including: The type of cancer.
