title: [The malignant neoplasm in pediatrics].
abstract: A summary of diagnostic and therapeutic progress in pediatric oncology is presented. The results are impressive, in that at least 1 child in 3 may be successfully treated. A truly effective treatment for the individual child requires the close cooperation of specialists on a national, regional and local scale. Pediatricians and general practitioners who suspect neoplasm are required, on the one hand, to ensure speedy and adequate clarification of the case, and, on the other, to cooperate in the treatment and care of children with cancer. Briefing and instruction of parents is of great practical importance.
