At the same time, however, has also substantially increased the chance of
surviving cancer thanks largely to advances in the diagnosis and treatment. In
the five years after the disease, children survive by 75% in Western Europe and
64% for children in Eastern Europe, with the same increase
in the case of adolescents. In the 70's, however, survived cancer 44% of
children, and 50% of adolescents.
According to Dr. Steliaronva-Foucher, these results demonstrate the increased incidence of cancer in childhood and adolescence during the past thirty years, and the acceleration of this trend.
Geographical and temporal factors must be studied in the future as the cause of this increase and also to indicate the progress of public health policies of various European countries. Knowing the risk factors be a slow and expensive; given the low incidence of childhood cancer, though no less necessaries. La most children with cancer live in developing countries. Although the level of survival reaches 80% for the West, children affected by this disease in developing countries die from lack of proper medical care. The International Society of Pediatric Oncology has recommended for that reason to concentrate resources in all countries for the creation of specialized units in pediatric cancer. These centers would record more cases of cancer and contribute to the knowledge of the incidence and epidemiology. It also would ensure equal treatment of the disease in the case of children from different parts of Europe.
