It depends.: The site of the primary cancer, be it thyroid, ovary rectum in general determines the treatment - a biopsy has to be done first to be certain it's a malignancy. Then a treatment plan will be devised, often by a conference of surgeons, mediczal oncologists and radiation oncologists.

Depends: It depends where it is originating. Tumors in various organs that microscopically are composed of finger-like projections of cells are referred to as papillary cancers. Some organs that can develop papillary cancers are the kidney, ovary, and thyroid. However, despite the similar names, the tumors in these organs are different from each other and require different treatments.
