  • Title: Educational deficits in survivors of childhood cancer.
    Author: Peckham VC.
    Journal: Pediatrician; 1991; 18(1):25-31. PubMed ID: 1983857.
    Abstract:
    Some long-term survivors of childhood cancer experience changes in cognitive functioning and have learning difficulties in school. Psychological and educational studies of children who received cranial irradiation in treatment for acute lymphocytic leukemia or brain tumor have identified specific disabilities. A coordinated educational intervention approach is needed, using special education services available through local school districts.
