Fetal growth and the risk of childhood non-CNS solid tumours in Western Australia

Using population-based linked health data, we investigated whether the risk of certain childhood non-CNS solid tumours (n=186) was associated with intra-uterine growth. The risk of retinoblastoma and rhabdomyosarcoma, but not other tumour types, was positively associated with increased growth, sugge...

Larger studies are needed.
