0 Question: how does cancer spread Keywords: cancer, disease Asked by nimco1994 to Andrew on 19 Jun 2013.
Andrew Swale answered on 19 Jun 2013:
Cancer cells break away from the original primary tumour and spread through the bloodstream or the lymphatic system
They can then form new secondary tumours in organs such as the lungs, liver or brain
This process is called ‘metastasis’
