Abstract
Dogs with osteosarcoma provide an important model for the same disease in humans. In this report, the comparative nature of human and canine osteosarcoma including incidence and risk factors, clinical presentation and diagnosis, genetic abnormalities, biologic behaviour and prognostic factors, as well as treatment options are reviewed.
