| Abstract: | A child with osteogenic sarcoma of the sacral spine has complex nursing and interdisciplinary team needs. The course of one patient is discussed, both from the patient and family's perspective and that of her inter-disciplinary care team. The need for a coordinated, holistic approach to care that involves advance planning, continual reassessment of goals, and clear communication among the team members and consulting services is clearly demonstrated. |
