In one sense you could say they are all the same. Cancer at its most basic is a just a proliferation on cells. So whether you’re talking about liver, bone, breast ect., the general process is the same and often the cause of death is the same; young cells (undifferentiated) are created at such a rate that they begin to congest an area and eventually consume so many resources that the human begins to die, a physiological coup within your own body.
