Question
A 4-year-old girl, after playing outside on the evening of December 7, 2010, woke up with pain in her lower leg the next day. After examination at a certain county-level city people’s hospital in Yunnan, it was suspected to be osteosarcoma, but not yet diagnosed. The doctor said they had never seen a similar symptom and initially judged it as a benign change, possibly fibrocystic defect, due to her young age, suggested referring to a specialized hospital for further diagnosis.
Answer
The accurate diagnosis and treatment of pediatric osteosarcoma are crucial. In addition to symptomatic treatment, daily care is also very important, including eating more vegetables and fruits, supplementing calcium, to reduce the chance of occurrence.
