It is hardly surprising that the experience of childhood cancer has longlasting psychological effects fot both patient and family. Indeed, with impiovements in suivival rates for childhood cancer and the emeiging evidence fot late effects of tieatment (Fiiedman & Meadows, 2002), incieasing appreciation fot the long-term psychological impact of childhood cancer and its treatment is imperative. Psychological late effects may be thought of as "the influence of cancel, tieatment, and suivivoiship on survivors' and theii family members' feelings, thoughts, behaviors, and relationships" (Rouike & Kazak, 2005, p. 137). This contextual view of psychological late effects emphasizes a range of potential outcomes across systems. In this chapter, we review the empirical literatuie from 1994 thiough 2004 on psychological effects of childhood cancel survival In doing so, we balance an appreciation ofthe tisks associated with survivoiship with the lesiliency that chaiacteiizes survivois and their families.

Medical treatment for acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) has improved survival rates to 70% for children currently diagnosed with this disease. Intrathecal (IT) chemotherapy replaced CNS radiation therapy (CRT) for those with a favorable diagnosis as research revealed cognitive deficits associated with CRT. The literature pertaining to the potential adverse intellectual and neurophysiological consequences of IT chemotherapy is reviewed. It is concluded that IT chemotherapy may not be a benign form of treatment, although its effects may be more subtle than those produced by CRT. Future studies implementing more comprehensive test batteries are needed to illuminate these deficits so that remediation may be possible for ALL survivors.
