“…Because no significant symptoms in organs with metastasis can be observed at early stages, distant metastasis is difficult to be identified in a timely manner. Therefore, many cancer patients suffer distant metastases at the initial diagnosis 4,5 . The incidence of initial distant metastasis in osteosarcoma patients is approximately 15%, 6 and the accurate prevalence of metastasis is thought to be underestimated.…”

“…Therefore, many cancer patients suffer distant metastases at the initial diagnosis. 4,5 The incidence of initial distant metastasis in osteosarcoma patients is approximately 15%, 6 and the accurate prevalence of metastasis is thought to be underestimated. Cancer may be the most serious medical problem worldwide, and huge medical and monetary resources have been spent in the management of cancer prevention and treatment.…”

“…Owing to the easy metastasis and high invasiveness of osteosarcoma, metastasis is detected at the first clinical visit in 10-20% of osteosarcoma patients (19). The most common metastatic site of osteosarcoma is the lung, and the recurrence rate of osteosarcoma patients with lung metastasis is as high as 80% (20,21), which seriously threatens their survival and prognosis (22).…”

“…[ 3 , 4 ] The lung is the most common metastatic site, and pulmonary metastasis typically occurs within 2 to 3 years after initial treatment. [ 5 7 ] Relapse occurring ≥10 years after an initial treatment for osteosarcoma is exceedingly uncommon and has been described in few reports. [ 5 , 8 15 ] We describe an extremely rare case of osteosarcoma that recurred as lung metastasis 38 years after the patient's initial treatment with surgery and chemotherapy.…”
