RESUMO
Organization of health care of a patient followed in pediatric oncology is not limited to cancer treatment. It includes a whole range of supportive care. Some are common to the supportive care offered in adult oncology, such as pain management and nutritional support. However, there are pediatric specificities. Others are more peculiar to children, such as education and information for young patients, and require a specific framework and innovative tools. The young age of patients and the improvement in survival rates in pediatric oncology also lead to questioning the temporality of supportive care by considering access to supportive care beyond the active phase of the disease. This review explains some of these different specificities: information and communication to the patient and his parents, assessment and management of pain, nutritional support but also schooling, long-term follow-up and screening sequelae induced by the disease and its treatments.
