Osteogenic sarcoma following treatment with megavoltage radiation and chemotherapy for bone tumors in children
Journal Article

· Med. Pediatr. Oncol.; (United States)
While osteogenic sarcoma has been well-recognized as a late complication of exposure to high doses of ionizing radiation in the orthovoltage energy range, it has been less frequently reported in patients treated with megavoltage radiation. Two children were seen who developed osteogenic sarcoma following treatment with megavoltage radiation and combination chemotherapy for primary bone tumors. The implications in regard to aggressive multimodality treatment for pediatric malignancies are discussed.
