What is Childhood Cancer?
Childhood cancer is a devastating diagnosis that affects children and young people up to the age of 18. Although it is not as common as adult cancer, it remains a significant health issue worldwide, with approximately 300,000 new cases diagnosed each year. The most common types of childhood cancer are leukemia, brain tumors, lymphomas, and neuroblastomas. The causes of childhood cancer are not fully understood, but research has identified some risk factors. Childhood cancer treatment usually involves a combination of surgery, chemotherapy, and radiation therapy, which can cause short and long-term side effects. The impact of these treatments on a child's physical, emotional, and social well-being can be significant.
