Approaches to long-term follow-up include both established models of care and targeted models of lifelong surveillance of late effects by bodily systems and neurological outcomes. Sections devoted to quality of life and re-entry after treatment focus on key concerns such as health risk behaviors, school and career issues, psychological challenges, and care disparities. And a robust resources section adds extra usefulness to the expert coverage. Among the Handbooks topics:•Developmental considerations in the transition from child and adolescent to adult survivorship. •Long-term follow-up roadmaps by disease and treatment. •Neuropsychological effects of pediatric brain tumors and associated treatment. •Building resiliency in childhood cancer survivors: a clinicians perspective. •School issues and educational strategies for survivors of childhood cancer. •Educating and preparing the childhood cancer survivor for long-term care: a curriculum model for cancer centers.
