International Childhood Cancer Day | Types of Childhood Cancer

February 15th is celebrated as International Childhood Cancer day and I'm here to tell you about the types of Childhood Cancer and how are they different from adult cancers so basically in children we have two types of cancers one is liquid cancers known as leukemias which can be either acute lipoblastic leukemia or acute myoid leukemia or they can be solid tumors of different organs like neuroblastoma rapto saroma Rino blastoma or whims tumor now how are they different from adults they are definitely different from adults because in adults it's basically the substance abused like Alcohol Tobacco which predisposes to certain types of cancers in children genetic factors environmental factors and a multitude of other factors come into play but nobody has been able to pinpoint a particular cause as to why children develop cancer thank you
