Paediatric Oncology

Overview

Paediatric oncology focuses on the diagnosis and treatment of cancers affecting infants, children, and adolescents. Childhood cancers differ significantly from adult cancers and require specialized expertise, child-friendly infrastructure, and multidisciplinary care.

At our Paediatric Oncology program, children receive comprehensive, compassionate care from a dedicated team of paediatric oncologists, paediatric haemato-oncologists, paediatric surgeons, radiation oncologists, paediatric intensivists, oncology nurses, and rehabilitation specialists. Our approach combines advanced medical treatment with emotional and developmental support for both the child and family.

We treat the full spectrum of childhood cancers, including:

Blood Cancers

• Leukemia (Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia, Acute Myeloid Leukemia)

• Lymphoma (Hodgkin and Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma)

Solid Tumors

• Brain and spinal cord tumors

• Neuroblastoma

• Wilms tumor (kidney cancer in children)

• Bone cancers (Osteosarcoma, Ewing sarcoma)

• Soft tissue sarcomas

• Retinoblastoma (eye cancer)

• Liver tumors

• Germ cell tumors

Our program focuses on:

• Early and accurate diagnosis

• Child-specific chemotherapy and targeted therapy protocols

• Pediatric cancer surgery and radiation therapy

• Comprehensive infection prevention and supportive care

• Growth, developmental, and psychological support

• Long-term survivorship and follow-up care

Our goal is to provide safe, effective cancer treatment while supporting the child’s growth, development, and overall wellbeing.
