✦ Synopsis

Background. Osteosarcoma of the head and neck, especially primary forms, remains a rare and highly malignant tumor

Patients. This report describes two patients who developed an osteosarcoma of the face more than ten years after treatment for bilateral retinoblastoma.

Conclusions. The mainstay of therapy is surgical resection with negative margins. Careful, long-term follow-up of survivors of hereditary retinoblastoma is essential, especially for those given radiation therapy. Med.
