Free tumour board review for every case
Childhood cancers — most commonly leukemias, brain tumours, lymphomas, and embryonal tumours like neuroblastoma and Wilms tumour — behave differently from adult cancers and generally respond very well to protocol-based treatment delivered by a paediatric oncology team.
Diagnosed at another hospital? You’re welcome too, with no commitment to start treatment at CION.
Childhood cancers — most commonly leukemias, brain tumours, lymphomas, and embryonal tumours like neuroblastoma and Wilms tumour — behave differently from adult cancers and generally respond very well to protocol-based treatment delivered by a paediatric oncology team.
Most of these have other causes too. If one lasts, see a doctor.
Having a risk factor doesn’t mean you will get cancer.
Evaluation is symptom-directed: blood counts and marrow studies, imaging (ultrasound, MRI, PET-CT), and biopsy where needed — performed with child-friendly anaesthesia care.
Many of these tests can be arranged by your CION team at CION Ameerpet.
Your plan depends on the type and stage of the cancer and on your overall health. CION’s tumour board agrees on it with you.

No. Childhood cancers are not caused by diet, vaccines, or parenting choices. Guilt is natural but misplaced — focus on treatment, and let the team support your family.
Children often tolerate chemotherapy better than adults. Anti-nausea care, nutrition support, and schooling/play integration keep life as normal as possible during treatment.
