Prognostic factors in High-Grade Localized Osteosarcoma of the Extremities: The Tunisian Experience.

CONCLUSION: Demographic characteristics of Tunisian patients are mainly the same than worldwide. Femoral site, normal level of lactate dehydrogenase, a clinical response during neoadjuvant treatment, an R0 surgery, a delay of relapse over 2 years and Median H24 Methotrexate level superior to 4.4 µmol/l were associated with a better prognosis in our study.
