Nineteen patients were male (mean age 36 years) and 19 patients (63%) presented with seizures. The tumor was located in the frontal lobe in 17 patients (57%) and the temporal lobe in nine patients (30%). [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

CT Usually presented as an intra-axial low-attenuation area with little to no associated edema. [radiopaedia.org]

As outcome is mainly determined by treatment-independent factors, minimization of any treatment-related risk must be considered essential. (c) 2006 American Cancer Society. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Thereafter, treatment may include chemotherapy and radiation therapy of doses and types ranging based upon the patient's needs. Subsequent MRI examination are often necessary to monitor the resection cavity. [en.wikipedia.org]

Each group will have 53 patients in it. 2 groups will receive treatment with everolimus alone, while the third group will receive treatment with both everolimus and temozolomide. [clinicaltrials.ucsf.edu]

Treatment If the tumor is accessible, standard treatment for oligoastrocytoma is surgical removal of as much of the tumor tissue as possible. [abta.org]

Minigemistocytes were sometimes recognized in recurrent tumors and had a sinister prognosis. Oligodendroglioma and oligoastrocytoma may transform into each other at recurrence. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Prognosis A prognosis is an estimate of the likely progress of a disease after a diagnosis, based on an average patient group. [braintumour.ca]

However, a wide range of etiologies may produce longitudinally extensive spinal cord lesions (LESCLs) on imaging. We highlight the case of a patient with a spinal cord tumor whose imaging showed LESCL and was diagnosed with LETM. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Discussion The etiology of OA has not yet been fully elucidated. [spandidos-publications.com]

Etiology Common risk factors in the development of OA included family history of brain tumors, ionizing radiation, and allergic diseases. 2.3. [intechopen.com]

Histology of Oligoastrocytoma no clear dissociation between oligodendroglial and astrocytic cells oligoastrocytoma (WHO grade II) anaplastic oligoastrocytoma (WHO grade III) Epidemiology of Oligoastrocytoma peak age between 35 and 40 in childhood arround [hirntumorhilfe.org]

We utilized the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results Program (SEER, 1999-2012) to test this hypothesis. [academic.oup.com]

Epidemiology Oligodendroglioma occurs at a younger age than the diffuse astrocytomas, usually afflicting young to middle aged adults. They account for about 5% of gliomas (compared with glioblastoma, accounting for 50%). [ozradonc.wikidot.com]

Epidemiology and demographics 2.1. Incidence OA was the third most common glioma. It accounted for 1% of all brain tumors and 5–10% of all glial neoplasms. The incidence of OA was approximately 0.03 per 100,000 individuals in the United States. [intechopen.com]

Everolimus is being investigated as an anticancer agent based on its potential to prevent tumor cells from growing and multiplying. [clinicaltrials.ucsf.edu]

Most patients also undergo regular MRI scans to monitor the site of the surgery in an effort to prevent a recurrence. Oligoastrocytomas are very likely to recur even after surgery, and additional procedures may be needed to remove any new tumors. [knowcancer.com]

In this day and age, where women are empowered to get tested for breast cancer genes (BCRA1 and BCRA2) and undergo preventative double mastectomies in the chance that they might develop breast cancer in the future, why can’t I get my own brain tissue [thelizarmy.com]

Or a website, that tells you exactly what to avoid to help prevent regrowth? I obviously realize that these don't exist but any insight would be helpful. [cancerforums.net]
