Osteonecrosis (ON) is a serious disabling complication in treated ALL patients.

The cumulative 5\u2010year incidence of ON was 11.96% (SE, 0.131%). Of 154 patients aged 10 years and older, 40 (26%) developed ON. The mean age of patients with ON was 10.7 years. The prognostic factors with a significant relationship with ON were age 10 years and older (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.0001) and intermediate\u2010\/high\u2010risk group (<jats:italic>P<\/jats:italic>\u00a0=\u00a00.0001). However, gender did not have a significant relationship. At the onset of ON, the mean cumulative dexamethasone dose was 796\u00a0mg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>, and the mean total corticosteroid dose, calculated as prednisolone equivalence, was 6,431\u00a0mg\/m<jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>.
