The COVID-19 pandemic has substantially stressed health care systems globally, subsequently reducing cancer care services and delaying treatments. Pediatric populations infected by COVID-19 have shown mild clinical symptoms compared to adults, perhaps due to decreased susceptibility. Several scientific societies and governments have released information on the management of patients with cancer, wherein they warn against exposure to SARS-CoV-2 infection and suggest continuing treatment. To determine the best diagnostic and therapeutic approach, multidisciplinary tumor boards should convene regularly, including through conference calls and telematics platforms. A prompt diagnostic workup may reduce children's suffering and prevent loss of confidence in the health care system among parents. Moreover, ensuring adequate support and information regarding measures for preventing SARS-CoV-2 infection in pediatric patients and their families is essential for avoiding panic and excessive stress, allowing early reporting of any suspected symptoms of cancer and, in turn, facilitating early diagnosis and prompt modulation of treatment.

COVID-19大流行在全球范围内极大地强调了医疗保健系统，从而减少了癌症护理服务并延迟了治疗。与成年人相比，被COVID-19感染的儿童人群已显示出轻微的临床症状，这可能是由于易感性降低所致。几个科学协会和政府已发布有关癌症患者管理的信息，其中警告不要暴露于SARS-CoV-2感染，并建议继续治疗。为了确定最佳的诊断和治疗方法，应定期召集多学科肿瘤委员会，包括通过电话会议和远程信息处理平台。及时的诊断检查可以减轻孩子的痛苦，并防止父母对医疗保健系统失去信心。此外，
