Serous
Definition:
(a.) Thin; watery; like serum; as the serous fluids.
(a.) Of or pertaining to serum; as, the serous glands, membranes, layers. See Serum.
Example Sentences:
(1) Ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma has distinctly different clinical behavior compared to serous carcinoma and should be regarded as an aggressive epithelial histologic type.
