Osteosarcoma - Childhood and Adolescence - Follow-Up Care
ON THIS PAGE: You will read about your child’s medical care after cancer treatment is finished and why this follow-up care is important. Use the menu to see other pages.
Care for children diagnosed with cancer does not end when active treatment has finished. Your child’s health care team will continue to check that the cancer has not come back, manage any side effects, and monitor your child’s overall health. This is called follow-up care. All children and teens treated for cancer, including osteosarcoma, should have life-long follow-up care.
