Tidigare forskning visar att barn till män som behandlats för cancer har förhöjd risk för medfödda missbildningar. En ny registerstudie från Lunds universitet kastar nytt ljus över ämnet. Studien visar att även barn födda långt före cancerbehandlingen har ökad risk för missbildningar. Det är tidigare belagt att cancerbehandling med medicinsk strålning och cytostatika (cellgifter) kan påverka ferti
