The Pediatrician and the Care of Children With Malignancy

R. J. H.

Most of us, as general pediatricians, know little about the technical aspects of modern care for the child with neoplasia. As Dr Pizzo points out in the commentary which follows, this is one of the disease groups for which this technical care is best given at a tertiary care center. However, the general pediatrician must make the diagnosis promptly, refer the patient to the appropriate site, maintain contact with the child and family, deal with intercurrent illnesses, and keep up-to-date with modern advances regarding the diagnosis and treatment of these disorders to be able to interpret them to the family.
