Department of Hematology and Oncology

1. Medical Treatment Details and Features

　This center, as a core hospital for pediatric cancers, is actively involved in providing medical treatment of childhood cancer, and it treats solid tumors including hematopoietic malignancies and cerebrospinal tumor without any bias. This center also proactively provides medical treatments for hematologic diseases including hemophilia, aplastic anemia and immune thrombocytopenic purpura. Hematopoietic cell transplantation supports not only the aforementioned diseases but also congenital metabolic disorders or congenital immunodeficiency.
　There is an in-hospital branch classroom where inpatients can continue to learning. We also proactively respond to issues proposed by so-called AYA generation cancer patients including high school students. The palliative care support team has been intervening from an early stage, and a supporting system has also been put in place for the patients and their families. Long term follow-up (LTFU) outpatient is available for patients with pediatric cancer and those who have undergone hematopoietic cell transplantation (Tuesday, Wednesday). Second opinion consultation is also available for cases related to pediatric cancer and hematologic diseases.

2. Main target diseases

• Childhood-onset and AYA-onset hematopoietic malignancies (acute lymphocytic leukemia, malignant Lymphoma, etc.), solid tumors (cerebrospinal tumor, neuroblastoma, Wilms tumor, rhabdomyosarcoma, etc.) and long-term follow-up (LTFU) for these diseases
• Hematologic diseases (various types of anemia, neutropenia, immune thrombocytopenic purpura, and other coagulation factors)

At our hospital, as a rule, except in the case of emergency cares at ER we only accept patients based on a referral appointment system.
