There are several common types of malignancies, including:
Carcinomas: Cancers that originate in the skin or tissues lining internal organs. Sarcomas: Cancers that begin in connective or supportive tissues such as bone, cartilage, fat, or muscle. Leukemias: Cancers of the blood-forming tissues, such as the bone marrow. Lymphomas: Cancers that start in the cells of the lymphatic system. Melanomas: Cancers that arise in the pigment-producing cells of the skin.
