Childhood cancers : Analysis of 1279 cases at Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, Pakistan
OBJECTIVE: To determine the clinicopathological pattern of childhood malignancies registered with a pathology-based tumour registry.
METHODS: The descriptive retrospective study was conducted at the Armed Forces Institute of Pathology, Rawalpindi, Pakistan, and comprised data related to all the histologically diagnosed malignant childhood tumours in the institutional tumour registry from January 2009 to December 2018. Data was analysed using SPSS 20 for the site of involvement, age distribution and histological types of tumours.
RESULTS: Of the total 37793 malignant tumours, 1279(3.38%) were in paediatric subjects aged <15 years. There were 820(64.1%) male subjects and 459(35.8%) were female. Lymph node malignancies were the commonest 261(20.4%), followed by eye tumours 251(19.6%), and brain 107(8.3%).
CONCLUSIONS: Lymphomas and eye tumours were found to form the main bulk of childhood cancer.
