Abstract
Currently, the number of cases of malignant diseases in children is increasing, but the number of children who have recovered is also increasing. In the past few years, the number of deaths has decreased thanks to the latest technologies for treating cancer patients, but there are still a number of problems in the lives of small patients after treatment. One of the important problems is the lack of continuation of the mandatory vaccination of children who have undergone a malignant disease, according to age and in accordance with the national calendar, despite the availability of clinical guidelines in domestic and foreign publications on preventive vaccination of this cohort. Many physicians make unjustified medical exclusions from vaccination based only on their own biases, which can be justified by the limited number of publications on this topic. In turn, vaccination can reduce the number of deaths from infectious complications and provide hope for further full life. Children with malignant diseases should be vaccinated against infectious diseases that can be prevented with vaccines after completion and sometimes during treatment. For such patients, there should be a vaccination schedule that takes into account the available therapy that may lead to the suppression of immunity. This article is devoted to the vaccination of children with malignant diseases.
