Overview
Common risk factors in the development of osteosarcoma are radiation to bones, alkylating antineoplastic agents, Paget disease, multiple hereditary osteochondromas, fibrous dysplasia, Bloom syndrome,Rothmund-Thomson syndrome, and Li-Fraumeni syndrome.
Risk Factors
Common risk factors in development of osteosarcoma are:
- Age and height: data suggest that the risk of osteosarcoma is highest during the teenage "growth spurt." Children with osteosarcoma are usually tall for their age
- Radiation to bones: people who were treated with radiation for another cancer have a higher risk of later developing post-radiation (after radiation) osteosarcoma
- Drugs: past treatment with anticancer drugs called alkylating antineoplastic agents
- Certain bone diseases:
- Paget disease of bone
- Multiple hereditary osteochondromas
- Fibrous dysplasia
- Enchondromtosis
- Inherited cancer syndromes: Genetic diseases that predispose to osteosarcoma are:[1]
