Determinanten & gevolgen van veranderde lichaamssamenstelling in overlevenden van kinderkanker
In the Netherlands, approximately 600 children are diagnosed with cancer every year. Due to improvement of treatment, combining surgery, multi-agent chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, in addition to remarkable advances in supportive care, survival has increased substantially over the last decades, leading to a rapidly growing cohort of childhood cancer survivors. Approximately 7000 long-term survivors of childhood cancer are living in the Netherlands nowadays.
