Abstract
Prophylaxis of Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia (PJP) with trimethoprim/sulfamethoxazole is a standard of care for children with hematologic malignancies, while its use in solid tumor patients is still debated. A retrospective study focusing on the use of PJP prophylaxis in patients with solid tumors was performed among 16 AIEOP centers: 1046/2863 patients did not receive prophylaxis and no cases of PJP were reported.
