This study aims to estimate the number of people living in Italy after a childhood cancer for all cancers combined and for a selection of cancer types. We computed 15-year prevalence using data from 15 Italian population-based cancer registries (covering 19% of Italian population) and estimated complete prevalence for Italy by using the CHILDPREV method, implemented in the COMPREV software. A total of 44,135 persons were alive at January 1st, 2010 after a cancer diagnosed during childhood. This number corresponds to a proportion of 73 per 100,000 Italians and to about 2% of all prevalent cases. Among them, 54% were males and 64% had survived after being diagnosed before 1995, the start of the observation period. A quarter of all childhood prevalent cases were diagnosed with brain and central nervous system tumors, a quarter with acute lymphoid leukemia, and 7% with Hodgkin lymphoma. Nearly a quarter of prevalent patients were aged 40 years and older. Information about the number of people living after a childhood cancer in Italy by cancer type and their specific health care needs may be helpful to health-care planners and clinicians in the development of guidelines aimed to reduce the burden of late effect of treatments during childhood.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pubmed<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/28233308\">https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pubmed\/28233308<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Francisci S, Guzzinati S, Dal Maso L, Sacerdote C, Buzzoni C, Gigli A; AIRTUM Working Group Int J Cancer. 2017 Jun 1;140(11):2444-2450. doi: 10.1002\/ijc.30665.
