The stomach is a tiny, pouch-like organ positioned in the upper region of the abdomen(belly). The stomach helps to digest food and is an essential part of the digestive system. Once the meal is chewed and swallowed, it travels through a tube known to be the esophagus, which carries food through the throat and chest to the stomach. The tube linked the stomach at the gastroesophageal (GE) junction. The stomach then begins to break down the food for absorbing nutrition by secreting gastric juice. The meal and gastric juice combined then entered into the small intestine section. Cancer begins as one cell which multiplies without control and expands to nearby tissues. The cells keep dividing and spreading without control until they form a lump or mass on the outside of your body or inside one of your organs. A tumor is a piece of mass in the part of the body, normally made up of a bunch of cells that multiply at a very speedy rate.
