Context: Types of treatment for children with tumors caused by MEN2 syndrome
If the cancer linked to MEN2 syndrome comes back after treatment, your child’s doctor will talk with you about what to expect and possible next steps. There might be treatment options that may shrink the cancer or control its growth. If there are no treatments, your child can receive care to control symptoms from cancer so they can be as comfortable as possible.
