Never-ending neuropathy.

An Australian cross-sectional study demonstrates that survivors of childhood cancers can live with chemo-induced neuropathies for as long as, well, the rest of their very long lives. At a median of 8.5 years out from last cancer treatment, over half of patients still had clinical evidence of ongoing neuropathy with lower extremities being the most common victim and vinca alkaloids the most common offender. | Kandula, JAMA Neurol 2018
