A Pediatric Case of Metastatic Conventional Parosteal Osteosarcoma Treated With Multidrug Chemotherapy.

Parosteal osteosarcoma (POS) is conventionally a low-grade sarcoma with limited metastatic potential; however, the tumor occasionally transforms into a high-grade dedifferentiated POS, which commonly metastasizes to distant organs. The present report describes a rare pediatric case of conventional POS with no dedifferentiated component yet had multiple pulmonary metastases at initial diagnosis. Following limb-sparing surgery and osteosarcoma-oriented neoadjuvant chemotherapy, the patient received total resection of pulmonary metastases. Despite no treatment for pulmonary recurrence 1 year after adjuvant chemotherapy, the patient is alive with stable disease 4 years and 6 months after the initial diagnosis.
