Résumé

The survival rate of children treated for cancer is currently about 80% at 5 years and we estimate that about 50,000 adults in France have survived childhood cancer. In 2011, there was a call for projects relating to long-term follow-up (LTFU), which led to several studies being conducted. Five years later, we sent a questionnaire to present LTFU in France and describe its strengths and weaknesses and to establish appropriate steps that should be taken.
