Supratentorial Low-Grade Gliomas
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 1990Low-grade gliomas (grades I and II) are infiltrative lesions. Patients harboring these tumors follow extremely variable clinical courses. Review of current data suggests that in patients with large tumors, complete excision affords long-term survival, with or without radiation therapy. Partial excision should be followed by radiation therapy.

Multicentric Low-Grade Gliomas
World Neurosurgery, 2015Multicentric low-grade gliomas are rare entities that occur in disparate regions of the brain. They can present with distinct pathologic and imaging findings and may harbor a worse prognosis. We present a case of multicentric low-grade gliomas and highlight their pathogenesis, imaging characteristics, and molecular signatures, with implications for ...

Low-grade intraosseous osteosarcoma
Cancer, 1990A study of 80 well-differentiated osteosarcomas, 16 from the Mayo Clinic files and 64 from our consultation files, revealed that males and females were about equally affected, most of the patients were young adults, and skeletal distribution was similar to the distribution seen in conventional osteosarcoma. Radiographs generally showed poor margination,

A low-grade extraskeletal osteosarcoma
Skeletal Radiology, 2003The case of a 35-year-old woman with low-grade extraskeletal osteosarcoma of the left leg is presented. Radiographs showed peripheral ossification of the lesion, suggesting myositis ossificans. Most of the tumor was composed of cartilage, and the cellularity and cell atypia of the proliferating chondrocytes were mild to moderate. In the periphery, bone

Low-Grade Astrocytomas of Childhood
Neurologic Clinics, 1991Low-grade astrocytomas are the single most common form of pediatric brain tumor, representing 28% of the total. Prolonged survival and even cures can be expected in a substantial proportion of patients who present with these tumors. For a variety of reasons, the overall oncologic management of children with low-grade astrocytomas is extremely ...

Chemotherapy of low-grade gliomas
Seminars in Radiation Oncology, 2001Histologic subtypes of low-grade gliomas include pilocytic astrocytomas (World Health Organization [WHO] grade I), diffuse infiltrating astrocytomas, oligodendrogliomas, and mixed oligo-astrocytomas (WHO grade II). Although extended survival is typical with these tumors, most patients eventually succumb to recurrent or progressive disease despite ...

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2004
Adult patients with a magnetic resonance scan suggestive of a supratentorial low-grade glioma should generally undergo at least a stereotactic biopsy to confirm the diagnosis and rule out an anaplastic glioma or a non-neoplastic lesion. Early tumor treatment should be given to patients with newly diagnosed low-grade gliomas who are over age 50 years ...

Current Treatment Options in Neurology, 2008
Making treatment decisions for patients with infiltrating low-grade gliomas (LGGs) is challenging. Patients frequently present with seizures and usually have little or no neurologic deficit. In this younger and relatively well patient population, despite the potential for significant morbidity, we believe that surgical resection, radiation therapy, and

Archives of Neurology, 1989
We believe there is insufficient evidence to justify the aggressive treatment (ie, surgery, radiotherapy, and chemotherapy) of all low-grade gliomas of the cerebral hemispheres. The indolent nature of these tumors makes it difficult, in the absence of a properly controlled clinical trial, to evaluate the true effectiveness of intervention.

The Low-Grade Lymphoproliferative Disorders
Oncology, 2009Rapid advances in our understanding of the biology and pathology of lymphoproliferative disorders, permitted mainly by new diagnostic tools, constantly change our approach to this heterogenous group of disorders. In this review of the more indolent subgroup of lymphoproliferative disorders, some of the recent advances are highlighted, and treatment ...
