Giant Cell Tumor of Bone

Thyroid Cancer (Papillary, Follicular, Medullary, Anaplastic)

Thyroid cancer is a type of cancer that starts in the thyroid gland, located at the base of the neck. It is often diagnosed early and is highly treatable in most forms. There are four main types:
• Papillary thyroid carcinoma: most common and least aggressive
• Follicular thyroid carcinoma: similar prognosis to papillary
• Medullary thyroid carcinoma: originates in C cells, can be hereditary
• Anaplastic thyroid carcinoma: rare and highly aggressive

Kidney Cancer (Renal Cell Carcinoma)

Kidney cancer, also known as Renal Cell Carcinoma (RCC), is the most common type of kidney cancer in adults, accounting for about 90% of all malignant renal tumors.
It originates from the renal tubular epithelial cells within the nephron.
The main subtypes include:

Clear Cell RCC (~75–80%)
Papillary RCC (~10–15%)
Chromophobe RCC (~5%)
Collecting duct carcinoma and Medullary carcinoma (rare, aggressive variants)
Kidney cancer typically occurs between ages 50–70 years and is more common in men.
Early-stage disease often causes few or no symptoms and is sometimes discovered incidentally on imaging.

Vaginal Cancer

Vaginal cancer is a rare cancer that forms in the vaginal lining. It primarily affects older women and is often linked to human papillomavirus (HPV) infection. Most cases are secondary (spread from nearby cancers), while primary vaginal cancer is uncommon.

Main types include:
• Squamous cell carcinoma (most common)
• Adenocarcinoma
• Melanoma and sarcoma (rare)

Cervical Cancer (Squamous Cell, Adenocarcinoma)

Cervical cancer begins in the cervix, the lower part of the uterus connecting to the vagina. It is largely preventable and highly treatable when detected early. Most cases are caused by persistent infection with high-risk human papillomavirus (HPV) types.

Main histologic types:
• Squamous cell carcinoma (most common)
• Adenocarcinoma
• Adenosquamous carcinoma (rare)
