Abstract

The body height at 8.0 years and at the time of diagnosis, as well as the dental maturity, were analysed in a sample of patients with classical and primary osteosarcoma, registered in Sweden between 1972 and 1974, in order to investigate whether these patients have an accelerated body height growth. in contrast to previous reports the height development was found to be normal. the dental maturity was also normal.
