Cervical cancer develops in the cervix, only a few centimetres away from the uterus, where uterine (body) cancer develops. Uterine cancer (endometrial carcinoma, womb cancer, or corpus carcinoma) usually originates from the cells of the uterine mucosa.
Endometrial cancer is a type of cancer that begins in the uterus. The uterus is the hollow, pear-shaped pelvic organ where fetal development occurs. Endometrial cancer begins in the layer of cells that form the lining (endometrium) of the uterus. Endometrial cancer is sometimes called uterine cancer.
Uterine cancer is the most common cancer occurring within the female reproductive system. Uterine cancer begins when healthy cells in the uterus change and grow out of control, forming a mass called a tumor.
