Cancer in young people is rare, but it is still a major health issue in Europe. Each year, more than 6,000 young people in Europe die of cancer. There are more than 300,000 European childhood cancer survivors (in 2020, they will be nearly half a million): two-thirds of them have some late side effects of treatment, that are severe and impact on the daily life of half of those affected.
Male childhood, adolescent and young adult cancer survivors treated with chemotherapy, or radiotherapy, or surgery involving reproductive organs have an increased risk of impaired spermatogenesis, testosterone deficiency and/or physical sexual dysfunction.
Because of this high risk survivors may benefit from surveillance.
