[Evaluation of selected parameters of cellular immunity in children with osteosarcoma at diagnosis].

TL;DRAbstract

1. The general analysis of peripheral blood without differentiating lymphocyte subpopulations is insufficient to determine disturbances which are forming in the immune system of patients developing the neoplastic disease. 2. The course of the neoplastic disease (osteosarcoma) in patients of developmental age is very diverse, and associated with individual biological variation. 3. The evaluation of the immunologic status in patients with osteosarcoma may have prognostic meaning for the further course of the disease, may prevent the formation of unfavourable clinical changes, and be the basis for correcting the administration of cytostatic agents.
