Question by eternalmicrobe: Can cancer be spread by diseased transplanted organs/bones to a person without cancer?
Can a person without cancer get cancer from a transplanted body part that has malignant cancer? In other words, lets say (person a) dies of malignant cancer that has spread to his liver. His liver is stolen and cause of death was changed to heart attack or something by some criminal. The liver is then transplanted to an otherwise healthy (person b) without cancer who for some reason needs a liver. Can the liver spread cancer to other parts of (person b)’s body?

Oh most definitely. Say a girl crushed her leg bone somehow and needed a graft. The hospital would get the bone which should be checked for any diseases, and then it would be surgically inserted into her leg. Now, if that leg bone wasn’t checked properly and the donor had bone cancer, then the girl would suffer from cancer.
You see, your bones produce cells and all cancer is, is abnormal cells that are completely useless. They don’t do their job properly, and your body’s performance decreases because the cells aren’t working properly. The cancer bone would produce cancerous bone marrow, which would give the girl cancer.
