Abstract

Childhood and adolescent survivors of cancerous lower-extremity bone tumors may be at unique risk of uncertainty about their future because of their specific cancer and/or physical disabilities secondary to treatment. This study aimed at clarifying survivors' uncertainty and related factors, including physical functioning, limb pain, and management of affected limbs.
