A 65-year-old man with inguinal adenopathy undergoes a lymph node biopsy. Light microscopy shows replacement of nodal tissue by cells that form well-defined, uniform glandular structures.

These findings are most consistent with which of the following?

A) High-grade, high-stage neoplasm

B) High-grade, low-stage neoplasm

C) Low-grade, high-stage neoplasm

D) Low-grade, low-stage neoplasm
