Increased survival of patients aged 0-29 years with osteosarcoma: A period analysis, 1984-2013.

This study demonstrated that the overall incidence of osteosarcoma remained stable, with an improvement in survival in the three decades. The improved survival was greater in males than in females in the three decades. Furthermore, the survival significantly increased in high-poverty group, which was attributed to increasing improved health care system and patients with low finance can also have access to receiving effective and consistent treatment without distinction.
