Description

Infants who were irradiated because of cutaneous haemangiomas have been followed up through registers for up to 55 years after the treatment and incident cancers have been recorded. The aim of the study was to describe the cohort, the treatment techniques and dosimetry and present the incidence of new cancers in comparison with an age and sex matched Swedish population.
