“…One of the significant problems is poverty, and under this, many obstacles exist, that impact the overall healthcare system of these countries. 8 Malnutrition is also a significant factor, especially in children with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia (ALL) who require a high nutrient intake parallel to their treatment. Additionally, LMICs have a contentious problem with the necessary drug at the treatment level: many children die because there are no drugs available on the market even before getting PPC, which is underdeveloped in these countries.…”

Pediatric oncology, which includes cancer screening and therapy in children, poses significant challenges in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Palliative care improves children’s and their families’ quality of life. In LMICs, palliative care resources are scarce, resulting in poor symptom management, psychological support, and spiritual care. All relevant English-language articles on pediatric palliative oncology were searched in PubMed, Google Scholar, Scopus, and Medline databases using the following keywords: “Pediatric Oncology,” “Pediatric Palliative Oncology,” “Pediatric Palliative Care,” “Palliative Care,” “Child Cancer,” and “Lower- and Middle-Income Countries.” This study highlights the significance of incorporating palliative care early in therapy and the recommendations may improve the competence of information provided by medical professionals to patients and families. LMICs have the potential to improve overall treatment and outcomes for child cancer patients and their families by prioritizing the integration of palliative care, guaranteeing a compassionate and dignified attitude toward the disease.
