Osteosarcoma is a primary malignant tumour that accounts for less than 1% of cancers diagnosed annually in the United States and 3% of all cancers in paediatric patients. Surgical treatment and adjuvant chemotherapy are essential to improve short- and long-term survival. In this report, we present the case of an 11-month-old female patient referred to the first level of care for a suspected tumour in the left orbit, who underwent biopsy and tumour resection surgery by the maxillofacial surgery service and underwent adjuvant chemotherapy in a specialised centre. Timely detection of cancer in the paediatric population, as well as multidisciplinary management and close surveillance, improves the survival and quality of life of patients.
骨肉瘤是一种原发性恶性肿瘤,在美国每年诊断出的癌症中占比不到1%,在儿科患者所有癌症中占3%。手术治疗和辅助化疗对于提高短期和长期生存率至关重要。在本报告中,我们介绍了一名11个月大的女性患者的病例,该患者因疑似左眼眶肿瘤被转诊至一级护理机构,接受了颌面外科服务的活检和肿瘤切除手术,并在一家专业中心接受了辅助化疗。儿科人群中癌症的及时检测以及多学科管理和密切监测可提高患者的生存率和生活质量。
