AB  - Each  year  approximately  150  out  of  every  1  million  children  younger  than  20  years  are  diagnosed  with  cancer.  For  children  between  the  ages  of  1  and  20  years,  cancer  is  the  fourth  leading  cause  of  death,  behind  unintentional  injuries,  homicides,  and  suicides.  However,  combined-modality  therapy,  including  surgery,  chemotherapy,  and  radiation  therapy,  has  improved  survival  dramatically,  such  that  the  overall  5-year  survival  rate  of  pediatric  malignancies  is  now  greater  than  80%.  It  is  estimated  that  currently  1  in  570  adults  will  be  a  survivor  of  childhood  cancer.
