many years ago the treatment of sarcoma was radiotherapy up to 2000-4000 rad. this treatment was very complicated, due to producing neoplasm after radiotherapy. by this method of treatment of osteosarcoma, the rate of survival became about 20% (two years). the second method of treatment was chemotherapy for a period of 2-5 weeks that amputation was performed afterwards. by chemotherapy, the rat...

The association between actinic granuloma and giant cell arteritis (temporal arteritis) has been claimed by some authors. There is a hypothesis that actinic radiation has the principal role in the etiology of both diseases in a similar way. Here, we report a case of actinic granuloma that had characteristic pathologic features of giant cell arteritis in histopathologic examination without clini...
