Abstract: The infantile cancer has a marked importance in the environment of the pediatrics; since it is the second cause of mortality in the childhood. The oncopediatría has gone perfecting the diagnosis and the treatment protocols, getting better indexes of survival. At the present time, the advances in the technical diagnose and therapies facilitate a significant increment of survivors among the sick cancer infantojuveniles. He was carried out the present bibliographical revision with the objective of characterizing the evolution of the Oncopediatria. For the achievement of this objective 15 bibliographies were consulted. The improvement of the survival of the patients is not due to the improvements diagnose, therapeutic and assistance, to a decrease of the incidence. The future of the oncopediatría is directed to less toxic, more effective and more selective treatments; and to be able to identify the patients for their genetic profile predicting if they will respond or not to certain drug or outline.
