Diagnosed incidentally with stage IV, grade 4 metastatic renal cell carcinoma, I had bone metastases in my femur (which eventually fractured), ulna, and cranium; five metastases in my lungs; and muscle metastases in my thigh and tongue. Yet six months after diagnosis, my treatment ended: I've not had a drop of anything since.

It's not at all good when your cancer is 'palpable' from the outside. Especially when, as at this stage, they didn't even know where the primary source was. Carcinoma works cunningly from the inside out. Detection and treatment often work more slowly and gropingly, from the outside in.

It wasn't until after the reduction that in the lab work, the pathology, that they found that I had DCIS (ductal carcinoma in situ) in my left breast. I was very, very lucky because DCIS is basically stage-zero cancer. So I was very lucky.

The cancer I had is called clear cell carcinoma, and it can show up anywhere at any time. There's always that little fear in the back of my head, it could show up in my colon, my stomach, my brain. I do worry about that.

Skin cancer became personal to my family when my father was diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma.

I wish I had the voice of Homer to sing of rectal carcinoma.

British Scientist

Carcinoma is used by medical professionals and in academic contexts, it's not typically used in casual conversation.

Technical Term

Carcinoma refers to cancers from specific cells, either the skin or internal lining, not all cancers.

Tissue Specificity

Carcinoma is not used for noncancerous (benign) tumors; it indicates malignancy.

Not For Benign

Carcinoma is specific to epithelial cells, remember its relation to both skin and organ linings.

Epithelial Origin

While carcinoma sounds like a term for any serious disease, use it only for this cancer type.

Common Misconception

Don't assume all carcinoma forms are visible on the skin; many affect internal organs.

Not Always Visible
