Management of high-grade bone sarcomas over two decades: the Norwegian Radium Hospital experience.

All cases of high-grade osteosarcoma (OS) (n = 196) and Ewing's sarcoma of bone (ES) (n = 56) treated at the Norwegian Radium Hospital in the period 1980-1999 were analyzed retrospectively. They were allocated to consecutive ten-year periods by their time of diagnosis. Patient and tumour characteristics have been relatively stable.
