Question

Which of the following is a characteristic of benign tumours?

पर्याय

• Grows rapidly and invades surrounding tissues and spreads to distant organs

• Grows usually slowly and remains localised to its original site

• Forms secondary tumours through metastasis

• Has irregular boundaries and is highly invasive

Answer 1

Benign tumours characteristically grow slowly and remain restricted to their site of origin without spreading to other parts of the body. They typically have well-defined boundaries, though they can still cause harm through pressure effects on adjacent structures, particularly in sensitive anatomical locations.
