A major improvement in survival rates after tumors has been accomplished by the medical field, especially in pediatric cancer. This led to an increased awareness for the still suboptimal very longterm survival, and for frequently occuring late effects after treatment of neoplasms. The aim of this thesis was to further examine longterm endocrine, bone-related and metabolic alterations in those who suffer(ed) from a tumor, with a particular focus on patients with craniopharyngioma.
De openbare verdediging zal plaatsvinden in de Prof. Andries Queridozaal, 3e verdieping Onderwijscentrum, Erasmus MC. De ceremonie zal exact om 13.00 uur beginnen. Gezien het plechtige karakter van de bijeenkomst adviseren wij om kinderen onder de 6 jaar niet naar het eerste gedeelte van de ceremonie mee te nemen.
