The study indicates that over 80% of childhood cancer cases in Tunisia, diagnosed over a ten-year period at the Pediatric Oncology Unit of Béchir Hamza Hospital, were related to solid tumors, particularly kidney tumors and neuroblastomas. It was found that 23.6% of the cancers were neuroblastomas, and 17.2% were kidney tumors, with metastatic disease present at diagnosis in 29% of cases. The study also showed that survival rates after two and five years are 76% and 69%, respectively, with factors such as leukemia and the presence of metastases reducing these rates. It recommends better organization of oncology treatment units and the development of a national cancer registry to improve treatment outcomes.
