Purpose:
This study aimed to establish a valid prognostic nomogram for osteocarcinoma after surgical management.
Methods:
Based on the SEER database, we retrieved the clinical variables of patients confirmed to have osteocarcinoma between 1975 and 2016. Then, we performed univariate and multivariate analyses and constructed a nomogram of overall survival.
Results:
Multivariate analysis of the primary cohort revealed that the independent factors for survival were age, grade, pathologic stage, T stage, and surgery performed. All these factors were showed by the nomogram. The correction curve of survival probability showed that the prediction results of nomogram well agreed with the actual observation results. The C index of the nomogram used to predict survival was 0.82; the AUC of 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates in the training cohort were 0.9, 0.819, and 0.80631, respectively, indicating that the model was accurate and reliable; whether the operation was performed or not; T stage; grade; and age were the main factors affecting the survival of patients. The AUC of the validation cohort for 1 year, 3 years, and 5 years were 0.8, 0.831, and 0.80023, respectively.
Conclusion:
The proposed nomogram can more accurately predict the prognosis of patients with osteocarcinoma after surgical management. This could be a potential method that services clinical work.
