Institute of Cancer Epidemiology

Lifelong cancer incidence in 48,000 patients treated for childhood cancer in the Nordic countries:
 
– Solid data from five small countries

By Jørgen H. Olsen, Director, MD, MDSc

Today, four of five patients with cancer in childhood survive the disease. Unfortunately, the treatment given also increases the risk for a new cancer later in life. This is the result of a large cancer survivor study from the five Nordic countries.
