A benign neoplasm is an abnormal growth of tissue that, unlike a malignant tumor, does not invade surrounding structures or spread to distant parts of the body. Benign Neoplasms tend to grow slowly, remain localized, and are often enclosed within a clear boundary, yet they can still cause symptoms by pressing on nearby tissues, by affecting the function of an organ, or by their location. Accurate diagnosis, usually through imaging and examination of the tissue under a microscope, is important to distinguish benign growths from malignant ones and to guide whether observation, removal, or other treatment is appropriate. Research collected on this page reflects the wide variety of benign and related tumors encountered in practice. Reports describe soft tissue perineurioma, fibromatosis colli in an infant, desmoplastic trichoepithelioma of the skin, and papillary endothelial hyperplasia, among other lesions, illustrating how such growths are recognized and characterized. Together these contributions show the diagnostic reasoning used to classify tumors by their behavior. The page gathers peer-reviewed, open-access research relevant to benign Neoplasms and the broader study of tumor pathology.
