Abstract. The prevalence of mental disorders in patients with cancer pathology is considered very high, regardless of the age of the patients. The spectrum of psychopathological manifestations detected in children and adolescents with cancer is very wide, but most often they are represented by diseases of non-psychotic levels (from adaptation disorders, neurotic and affective symptoms to psychopatho-like and psycho-organic conditions and intellectual insufficiency)
