Unrestrained growth: of cells. Abnormal cell structure, function. Grows, spreads locally and away by direct extension or through blood vessels and/or lymph. Not 1 disease, but many. Multiple causes, incl genetic defects (inborn or acquired), physical, chemical damage, effects of radiation. Input from environment, including (long term) nutrition, other factors. Therefore not a single or simple cure
