Implication

Historical cohort confirms poor pre-adjuvant osteosarcoma survival; leaves open impact of contemporary multimodal regimens.

Structured PICO

P
Population
243 patients with pathologically verified primary osteosarcomas of bone treated at The University of Texas System Cancer Center, M. D. Anderson Hospital and Tumor Institute over a 24-year period. 76.5% of cases occurred in patients less than 25 years old.
I
Intervention
Surgery, irradiation, and chemotherapy (prior to the use of adjuvant chemotherapy)
O
Outcome
Survival (3-year and 5-year survival rates)hard clinical

Prior to the use of adjuvant chemotherapy, primary osteosarcoma of bone had a poor prognosis with a 5-year survival rate of only 12.6%.
