Background: Radiation may cause long-term splenic dysfunction, risking potentially fatal late sepsis. We aimed to review this complication's magnitude in paediatric radiotherapy and gauge the level of awareness of the spleen as an organ at risk.
Methods: Clinical trial protocols and radiotherapy guidelines, patient/parent information sheets, and professional guidance documents were reviewed to assess the perceived risk of radiotherapy-related splenic dysfunction.
