	Genetic Conditions: Cancer Cancer is a condition in which abnormal cells divide without control. Cancer cells can invade nearby tissues and can spread through the bloodstream and lymphatic system to other parts of the body. There are many types of cancer that affect various parts of the body. - A - Adenomatosis, familial endocrine see Multiple endocrine neoplasia Adenomatous polyposis coli see Familial adenomatous polyposis Adenomatous polyposis of the colon see Familial adenomatous polyposis Adult premature aging syndrome see Werner syndrome Adult progeria see Werner syndrome Angiomatosis retinae see von Hippel-Lindau syndrome -
