Filling the gaps in knowledge and treatments for sexual health in young adult male cancer survivors
Menée en Finlande à partir de données portant sur 52 patients masculins ayant survécu plus de 10 ans à une leucémie lymphoblastique aiguë durant l'enfance (âge médian : 28, 5 ans) et auprès de 56 témoins, cette étude analyse les dysfonctionnements de nature sexuelle
Male survivors of childhood cancer will spend their entire adult lives with the late effects of treatment on their sexual health. A valuable article in this issue makes it clear that the sexual difficulties in these survivors, who most often are treated for hematologic malignancies like acute lymphoblastic leukemia, differ from those in men who are treated for prostate or testicular cancer, and their sexual function treatments must be adapted to fit those needs
