Like if you detect it early enough, I know you can remove it. But what is the point that it can’t just be removed, and why?
In: Biology
when cancer is found early, and confined to a single anatomical area, it is surgically removed.
the issue is that cancer spreads microscopically through the blood stream and lymph nodes and can sometimes spread beyond what we have detected. if you put someone through a surgery, but they still have cancer you haven’t done them any favors.
