Some of the common types of childhood cancer are leukemia, cancer of brain and lymphomas. Certain tumors such as Wilms tumor and Neuroblastomas can also be seen. Various carcinogenic factors cause childhood cancer yet, according to studies, usually childhood cancers are not associated with their lifestyle or environmental factors. Childhood cancers are mostly caused due to some serious infections like HPV, AIDS, Hepatitis etc. The survival rate of childhood cancer changes from one country to another depending on its economy. As per WHO reports, the high income countries have about 80% cure rate while economically weak countries have about 30% cure rate. The deaths from childhood cancer in economically weak countries are usually due to lack of diagnosis, misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis. Also not providing proper care or abandoning treatment leads to death Доп.точки доступа: Kanniradan, Veetil Arjun Krishna Свободных экз. нет
