Pediatric bone tumors in Germany from 1987 to 2011: incidence rates, time trends and survival

Abstract: Background: Malignant bone tumors are a rare group of childhood cancer. Materials and methods: This study describes incidence rates, survival probabilities, and time trends for 1831 children below 15 years of age with a bone tumor registered at the population-based German Childhood Cancer Registry between 1987 and 2011. Results: Overall age-standardized annual incidence rate (ASR) was 5.5 per million. Osteosarcomas (ASR 2.8) and Ewing tumors (ASR 2.6) were the most frequent diagnostic groups. The incidence of … Show more

“…Ewing sarcoma (EwS) is an undifferentiated small-round-cell sarcoma driven by FET-ETS fusion oncoproteins [1]. EwS constitutes the second most common bone-associated sarcoma in children, adolescents, and young adults after osteosarcoma [1][2][3]. However, EwS also occurs in soft tissue, although less frequently and predominantly in older patients [4,5].…”

“…Злокачественные опухоли костей составляют 3-5 % всех онкологических заболеваний у детей в возрасте до 18 лет, при этом наиболее частыми являются остеосаркома (51 %) и СЮ (45,9 %) [13]. На сегодняшний день при СЮ показано комплексное лечение с включением неоадъювантной комбинированной химиотерапии, операции, адъювантной химиотерапии, использованием режимов ВДХТ с аутологичной трансплантацией костного мозга (опционально) и лучевой терапии, что позволяет достигать 5-летней общей выживаемости у 60-70 % пациентов с локализованными стадиями заболевания.…”

Общая длительность 1-й линии терапии может варьировать от 8-9 мес до 1,5 лет в зависимости от стадии заболевания, переносимости и ответа на проводимое лечение [13,14].…”

“…In Germany, NB accounts for 7% of childhood cancer cases, but is responsible for approx. 11% of cancer deaths in children [ 1 ]. It originates from highly migratory, sympathoadrenal progenitor cells from the neural crest that migrate long distances and form the adrenal medulla, paraganglia, as well as paravertebral and prevertebral sympathetic ganglia (for review see: [ 2 , 3 ]).…”
