title: [Life style and quality of life of children and adolescents following malignant tumor disease].
abstract: Psychosocial support after the diagnosis of childhood cancer is absolutely necessary to help not only the patients but also the parents, family members, and friends to deal effectively with the emotion and social problems arising from the disease. Psychological support for the whole family, rooming-in facilities on the ward, parent-self-help-groups, social and financial helps reduce problems which flow from such a diagnosis and may develop a positive coping strategy. Experiences over a long period of psychosocial aftercare in the University Hospital of Heidelberg are analyzed and some scientific data of this model are reported.
