Progress in long-term survival in adult patients with supratentorial
low-grade gliomas: a population-based study of 993 patients in whom tumors were diagnosed between 1970 and 1993.

Although the low-power gray-blue tumor hue of polymorphous
low-grade adenocarcinoma (PLGA), a result of the tumor's mucohyaline matrix and the neoplastic cell's vesicular chromatin, usually allows for the quick elimination of MASC, (26) PLGA not uncommonly coexpresses S100 protein and mammaglobin (15) and usually occurs in minor salivary gland sites, and therefore it could easily enter into a differential diagnosis with MASC, especially on small biopsy specimens.

low-grade adenocarcinoma of the salivary glands: A clinicopathological comparison with adenoid cystic carcinoma.
"After surgery, with or without pre-surgical chemotherapy, when
low-grade serous ovarian cancer persists or returns, chemotherapy and hormonal therapy are relatively ineffective," concedes David Gershenson, professor in The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center's Department of Gynecological Oncology and Reproductive Medicine, Houston, Texas.
Biopharmaceutical company Array BioPharma Inc (NasdaqGM:ARRY) reported on Monday that it will start a global Phase 3 clinical trial in patients with recurrent
low-grade serous ovarian cancer (LGSOC) this summer under the MILO (MEK Inhibitor in Low Grade Serous Ovarian Cancer) study.

One of the main problems with most current bladder cancer markers is the struggle to identify both high- and
low-grade cancers, most likely due to differing molecular pathways.
Low-grade fibromyxoid sarcoma (LGFMS) is characterized by its relatively benign histological appearance with spindle cells in a whorling pattern, as well as collagenized and myxoid areas [1,2].
Moreover, the use of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for stable, confirmed
low-grade dysplasia can also be cost effective, said the investigators.
In addition, for the first time,
low-grade serous invasive ovarian cancer also was linked to endometriosis.
