Abstract:There is scant research available about how fathers cope with their children receiving difficult treatment protocols for diseases such as childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The present discussion contributes to this area with findings on the paternal experience of treatment for pediatric ALL collected from the families in a longitudinal study conducted at Royal Children's Hospital and the Mater Children's Hospital, Brisbane, Queensland.

Approval: 03-18-2017 ABSTRACT Objective: To synthesize and interpret fi ndings and conclusions of qualitative research addressing the experience of the father in the care of the child with cancer. Method: Meta-synthesis of 16 qualitative studies from six databases, analyzed through taxonomic analysis. Results: Child and adolescent cancer have several repercussions on the daily life of the father, especially related to the stigma around the disease, the fear of the unknown and the social and family role. Faced with the illness and the need to care for the child, the father seeks to recover normality in the family and transitions between hegemonic masculine behaviors and practices culturally recognized as female. Final Considerations: The complex experience of the father, infl uenced by masculinities, was evidenced. The limitations regard the restricted understanding of the contextual specifi cities of the experiences, due to the limited characteristics of the parents and children described in the studies. The knowledge produced is useful to promote involvement of fathers in the care of the child, as well as to strengthen and assist him in this task.

RESUMO Objetivo: Sintetizar e interpretar resultados e conclusões de pesquisas qualitativas sobre a experiência do pai no cuidado do fi lho com câncer. Método: Metassíntese de 16 estudos qualitativos capturados em seis bases de dados e analisados por meio da análise taxonômica. Resultados: O câncer infantojuvenil impõe inúmeras repercussões ao cotidiano do pai, sobretudo relacionadas ao estigma da doença, ao medo do desconhecido e ao papel social e familiar. Diante da doença e da necessidade de cuidado do fi lho, o pai busca resgatar a normalidade na família e transita entre comportamentos hegemonicamente masculinizantes e práticas reconhecidas culturalmente como femininas. Considerações fi nais: Evidenciou-se a complexa experiência paterna infl uenciada pelas masculinidades. As limitações referem-se à restrita compreensão das especifi cidades contextuais das experiências, pelas escassas características dos pais e fi lhos descritas nos estudos. O conhecimento produzido revela-se útil para promover o engajamento paterno no cuidado do fi lho, bem como fortalecê-lo e auxiliá-lo nesta tarefa.

“…These few investigations have focused predominantly on the impact of cancer on parents whose offspring have cancer (Goldbeck, 2001;McGrath & Chesler, 2004), the impact of parental cancer on children and adolescents (Harris & Zakowsky, 2003;Lewis, Hammond, & Woods, 1992;Osborn, 2007), and overwhelmingly on spouses of cancer patients (Case, 2004 For example, Welch, Wadsworth, and Compass (1996) examined the impact of a parental cancer diagnosis on children and adolescents. The authors found that while parents did not perceive any distress in their children (6 to 10 year olds) and adolescents (11-18 year olds) following the diagnosis, adolescents and children scored high in anxiety/depression and aggression measures.…”
