Endocrine Late Effects in Survivors of Pediatric Brain Tumors
Journal of Pediatric Oncology Nursing, 10/26/09
Shaw S – Curative therapy for childhood brain tumors survivors places them at significant risk for complex multi–organ medical late effects.These late effects can create a negative effect on cognition, growth, organ function, body image, sexual function and quality of life. Treatment related complications can occur many years after completion of therapy. Close monitoring is necessary so that early detection and intervention can hopefully decrease the full negative impact of many of these effects. Lifelong medical surveillance with a multidisciplinary team approach is essential to maximize health and improve the quality of life of survivors of pediatric brain tumors.
