Les spécificités de la transition en cancérologie pédiatrique.

ABSTRACT

PARTICULAR FEATURES OF THE TRANSITION IN PAEDIATRIC ONCOLOGY The transition from paediatrics to adult medicine for young people who have been treated for paediatric cancer presents specific issues. This is due to the previous experience of cancer, the risk of sequelae which is still present despite recovery and, finally, the specific links established between families and paediatricians. These paediatricians must, therefore, look forwards and prepare the transition throughout their supervision, in order to allow separation while avoiding a break in follow-up.
