Benign tumors are non - cancerous and do not spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body. Malignant tumors are cancerous and can metastasize. While benign tumors may cause health problems depending on their location (e.g., a benign brain tumor can put pressure on the brain and cause issues), the key difference is the lack of metastasis in benign tumors.
