	Osteogenic Sarcoma
		Osteogenic sarcoma, also called osteosarcoma, is the most common type of bone cancer in children.
		Osteogenic sarcoma usually occurs between the ages of 10 and 25 and is more common among males than females.
		Although osteogenic sarcoma may be suspected by the way the bone looks on x-rays, diagnosis can be confirmed only by biopsy.

	OSTEOGENIC SARCOMA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-03)
		Osteogenic sarcoma is a bone tumor in which the malignant cells are capable of directly making osteoid and or bone.
		The sporadic cases of the osteogenic sarcoma (Li-Fraumeni syndrome) are associated with mutation in p53 suppressor gene on chromosome 17.
		Grossly, osteogenic sarcomas appear as gray-white tumors showing areas of hemorrahge and necrosis which arise in the medullary cavity of the metaphyseal ends of the long bones (proximal tibia, distal femur, proximal humerus; see figure) and locally destroy adjacent bone and may extend to the soft tissue.
