    The document outlines the pathophysiology of cancer development, including modifiable factors like tobacco, diet, and habits, as well as non-modifiable factors like age, sex, and genetics. Carcinogen exposure can lead to genetic mutations in mucosa or skin cells, lymphatic involvement, and ultimately invasive cancer if mutations are not repaired. The patient case describes a painless lump that grew from 1 cm to 5 cm over the past year, visually representing the increasing size of the tumor.

    Pathophysiology

    Modifiable Factors: Non-modifiable Factors:

    Tobacco, Diet, Habits, Age, Sex, Genetic make-up


    Occupational exposure,
    Infection

    Exposure of mucosa
    or skin to
    carcinogens

    Lymphatic Involvement

    In the case of our patient:

    It started as a painless lump a year before and progressed its size. From 1 cm from the first
    months then grew to 5 cm’s. A visual representation of how big the tumor is.
