Abstract
This chapter opens with a detailed account of survival rates for children with cancer diagnosed in Britain during 1991–2000. Survival rates are presented for all cancers combined and for diagnostic groups, subgroups and divisions within the International Classification of Childhood Cancer, Third Edition. Variations in survival by age group and sex are analysed for all diagnostic categories. Time trends in survival are documented for children diagnosed between 1966 and 2000. The results of both sets of analyses are discussed in relation to other large, population-based studies. Trends in survival are, where possible, related to progress made in successive clinical trials that included substantial numbers of British patients. Trends in long-term survival are analysed and the increase over time in the numbers of five-year survivors of childhood cancer in the population is presented graphically. Patterns of occurrence of multiple primary neoplasms are presented.
