Hi, Thanks for writing in. It is important to know the details of the cancer and its extent. There are many types of cancer that can occur. They can involve any structure in the body, and they are classified based upon the cell that is present in the cancer. The cells are further classified as well differentiated, , moderately differentiated and undifferentiated. When a cancer is stage one it refers to the size and that it has not spread locally and there is no distant spread. However, such cancers can have poorly differentiated cancer and if not treated properly, they can go from stage 1 to stage 4 quickly. Most cancers detected at stage 1 are treatable however there are some cancers which require longer treatment so that they are under control and do not recur after treatment is complete. Please do not worry.
