Neoadjuvant chemotherapy is the most accepted treatment for localized osteosarcoma. This has led to a great improvement in limb-sparing surgery and in disease-free survival. Patients with a good response to preoperative chemotherapy showed a higher disease-free survival rate. Current studies examine the possibility of patients whose limbs could be rescued with a poor necrosis and a reduction of the side effects related to aggressive treatments.
