Childhood Cancer Survivors' Quality of Life

Background: Childhood cancer was about 3%-5% cases of all cases. Dharmais National Cancer Hospital was pointed out by Ministry of Health as National Quality Control of Cancer Burden Data in 2016. To provide national cancer burden data, Ministry of Health established 14 population based cancer registries in 2016, located in 14 provinces in Indonesia. The coverage area was 26 districts/municipalities in each selected provinces with total coverage number of population was 14% of Indonesia. Aim: This study was to describe quality data of 14 population based cancer registries in Indonesia and to describe the epidemiology of childhood cancer during 2008-2012. Methods: We used 14 population based cancer registries data that collected in Office of National Quality Control of Cancer Burden Data, Dharmais National Cancer Center, within age 0-19 years old during 2008-2012. We analyzed quality data of 14 population based cancer registries data based on WHO-IARC rules for cancer registry data. Results: There were 4156 cases. The average of percentage microscopic verification was 59%, 7 out of 7 provinces had lower percentage of microscopic verification. The highest was South Sulawesi (98%) followed by Central Java (92.9%), and East Borneo (79.4%). Most of them had over 25% of DCO. DKI Jakarta had the highest incidence age-standardized rate (7.1) followed by Bali (4.9) and North Sulawesi (4.8). The most frequent childhood cancer cases were in male (57%), between 10-14 years old. Both in male and female had similar rank of the most frequent cases, other malignant epithelial (22.4%: 17.2%), leukemia (19.3%: 14.3%), and other and unspecified malignant tumor (9.4%: 8.4%). Conclusion: The coverage and quality data of childhood cancer in 14 population based cancer registries data were low. Each population based cancer registries should improve the process of cancer registration.
