- (beh-NINE) A noncancerous growth that does not invade nearby tissue or spread to other parts of the body.
- A neoplasm which is characterized by the absence of morphologic features associated with malignancy (severe cytologic atypia, tumor cell necrosis, and high mitotic rate). Benign neoplasms remain confined to the original site of growth and only rarely metastasize to other anatomic sites.
