Is carcinosis considered a form of metastasis?

The terms carcinomatosis and metastatic cancer both refer to cancer that’s spread from its original site in your body to other parts of your body. Generally speaking, metastatic cancer involves cancer that spreads into tissue that surrounds the original tumor or to more distant parts of your body. Carcinomatosis happens when your original cancer spreads, scattering several tumors in a widespread area of your body.
