Cancer is the most common cause of death from childhood illness. Approximately 600 children in the Netherlands get cancer every year. One in four children with cancer dies. The Princess Máxima Center in Utrecht’s mission is to cure every child with cancer, with optimal quality of life. It is the largest pediatric cancer center in Europe.
