Treatment for childhood cancer puts the young patients at risk to develop adverse health outcomes. These adverse health outcomes can develop acute, already during treatment, or slowly over years to decades after completion of treatment. They can be of transient nature or long-lasting and chronic. Adverse health outcomes can potentially affect every organ system, including the lung. The term late effects is used to describe this heterogeneity of adverse health outcomes. Pulmonary late effects contribute to a higher morbidity and mortality in childhood cancer survivors compared to siblings or the general population.
