Abstract:
The paper is dedicated to various forms of chemotherapy used in osteosarcoma from the very beginning in '70-ties, when only one drug treatment was applied through the following 20 years full of assays and clinical trials, which finally proved the necessity of multidrug chemotherapy in all cases of osteosarcoma.
