Intra-operative photodynamic therapy has been applied with acridine orange (AO-PDT) to human musculoskeletal sarcomas for the past 4 years, resulting in a low local recurrence rate, within 10%, after intra-marginal tumor resection and excellent limb function. However, it is still unclear why acridine orange (AO) specifically accumulates in tumor cells, especially in malignant tumor cells. The purpose of this study was to clarify the mechanism of AO accumulation in malignant musculoskeletal tumors.
