Abstract Objective To investigate the influencing factors of children's physical growth, developmental status, psychological status, and participation in social activities after solid tumor surgery in children. Methods A convenient sampling method was adopted to select 128 children with solid tumors (solid tumor group) and 169 children with non-solid tumors (control group) admitted to the Department of Pediatric Surgery, Xinhua Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine from January 2017 to January 2020. The self-designed questionnaire and Achenbach child behavior checklist (CBCL) were used to conduct face-to-face interviews with the parents of the children. Data in the forms of on-site distribution, filling, and recycling were collected and analyzed. Results Compared with the control group, the solid tumor group had a lower body mass index, a higher economic burden, a longer returning to school after treatment, and a higher incidence of behavioral problems. In addition, compared with the control group, the incidence of social withdrawal and schizophrenic anxiety was higher in male children with solid tumors aged 6 to 11 years, and the incidence of depression was higher in female children in the solid tumor group. Conclusion The social regression of children with solid tumors after surgery is affected by many factors. It should be regarded as an important part of the specialist treatment plan, attracting enough attention and providing a collaborative basis for the specialist comprehensive treatment plan.
