It means there is no cancer. Probably biopsy results. means there is no sign of cancer or even preliminary cell changes that could lead to cancer. it is very good news.
It's not cancer and it's not expected to turn into cancer. However, that does not mean it could not turn into cancer at a future date. So keep an eye on it, and ask your doctor for a prognosis. (In other words, ask what he or she thinks will happen in the future.)
Cancer that DOESN'T HAVE the capacity to invade your body by sending metastasis.

Benign means a non-cancerous growth, whereas malignant is cancerous. I interpret it as saying its a non-cancerous mole/lump or something that hasn't changed into a cancerous one.(yet) But it sounds like its being monitored.
it means thank the lord above that you don't need kimo therapy. it means it shouldn't grow any bigger and you don't have to worry about it spreading to other parts of your body
Binign means not diseased and if there is no evidence of malignant change it means that there is no reason to believe that any disease has entered the area. These terms are usually used in realtion to terminal diseases and more especially cancer.
It means that the lesion/lump from which tissue sample was sent is not cancerous.
