Long-Term Outcome of Low-Grade Oligodendroglioma and Mixed Glioma
Neurol 54:1442-1448,1402, Olson,J.D.,et al, 2000
See this aricle in Pubmed

Article Abstract
Low-grade oligodendroglioma and mixed glioma have a long median overall survival. There were no apparent differences in either immediate versus deferred treatment or choice of initial therapy on disease-free or overall survival. Chemotherapy was associated with significant acute toxicity in almost one half of patients; radiation therapy produced late neurotoxicity in one third, justifying deferred treatment until clinically necessary.
