title: [Osteosarcoma: current views on pathology and new therapeutic perspectives. II: Criteria of prognosis and treatment (author's transl)].
abstract: The authors review recent studies and trials concerning the treatment of osteosarcoma, with special attention to current trends in immunology, radiology, surgery, and chemotherapy. Progress in immunobiological research seems to promise interesting practical developments; even today, however, modern chemotherapy combined with suitable ablative surgery affords a remarkably better prognosis for this malignancy.
