Cancer treatments are mostly focused on removing and destroying the cancer cells themselves. They can range from surgery to remove tumors, to drugs which try to choke off the tumor’s blood supply, to radiation therapy

Most cancer cells multiply and stay localized, at least at first, forming a tumor, with one notable exception to this rule being leukemia. Not all tumors are cancerous, however. Benign tumors are growths that can share certain characteristics with cancerous tumors, but are self-limiting and non-destructive. They mostly do not come back after they are removed.
