Cancer is a disease characterized by uncontrolled cell proliferation manifested by tumor formation, which is a physiological disorder. Childhood cancer is the leading cause of death in children. Following the World Health Organization's emphasis on child health, most governments around the world have taken measures to facilitate childhood cancer research. With the advent of multimodality therapy, it is seen that the death rate from cancer has decreased in the last five years, and today, cancer survival has exceeded 80% in most European and North American countries. Significant advances in survival have led to an ever-increasing population of childhood cancer survivors. Childhood cancer survivors are at risk for various serious physical and mental health conditions attributable to cancer and its treatment, as well as adverse social and socioeconomic consequences and reduced psychological well-being and quality of life. Early diagnosis is important in children because there are no screening tests like in adults And it is a very important task to be careful with, for the physicians who follow the child. Studies prove the idea that reduction in daily physical activity is the primary cause of chronic diseases/conditions and that physical activity/exercise is the rehabilitation treatment (therapy) of dysfunctional dysfunctions caused by inactivity. The aim of this review is to examine general information about childhood cancer and the effects of physical activity.
