2. What is Cancer Therapy?
Cancer therapy for children is most
often called pediatric oncology.
It is one of the most ruthless forms of
cancer because it attacks young
defenseless children.
3. If you spend any time learning about
cancer and pediatric oncology you'll
undoubtedly discover that there are
many stories of young lives taken much
too soon to this horrible disease.
In their efforts to fight their cancer
children must undergo painful medical
oncology treatments
4. Types of Cancer Treatment For
Children
The main types of cancer treatment for
children are:
1. Chemotherapy,
2. Radiation Therapy, and;
3. Surgery to remove the cancer.
5. Chemotherapy
Chemotherapy is a type of treatment that
kills cancer cells but damages normal
human cells.
This type of treatment can cause severe
side effects and long lasting health
implications.
The damage depends greatly on how long
chemotherapy is performed and how long
the child is exposed to this type of
treatment.
6. Radiation therapy
Radiation therapy is a cancer treatment
that can make tumors smaller by using
high energy rays.
Radiation therapy can be used as a stand
alone treatment or it can be used prior
to or after surgery.
It can also be harmful to normal cells, not
just cancer cells so there is a risk of
severe side effects.
7. Surgery
Surgery can be one of the most effective
forms of cancer treatment.
Surgery can major or minor, depending
on the size of the cancerous area and
progression of the disease.
One of the main considerations doctors
have when performing this type of
surgery is to try to take out as much of
the cancer as possible without removing
healthy tissue (or only removing very
little healthy tissue).
8. Pediatric Cancer Centers
It is important to know when you are
looking for a cancer center for children
that you find one that is a member of the
Children's Oncology Group (COG).
Most of these types of facilities are non-
profit organizations with the sole
mission of helping kids fight cancer and
other related diseases.
9. Beyond fighting the sickness these types
of facilities also help children cope with
what they have.
10. Generally speaking, almost 71% of all
people who initially find out they have
cancer are treated in medical facilities
accredited by the Commission on Cancer
(CoC) by the American College of
Surgeons so this is also important to
look for when seeking treatment as you
can be assured that these centers have
the highest level of care available to your
child.
