The improvement in survival rates in pediatric malignancies has led to an increase in the number of cancer survivors who are at risk of developing cardiotoxicity and heart failure. Cardiac dysfunction in these patients can occur asymptomatically, and the diagnosis in a symptomatic phase is associated with reduced treatment response and worse prognosis. For this reason, it is essential to establish protocols to follow up on these patients and identify those at risk of cardiotoxicity in order to start early and effective therapies. This review aims to summarize the latest findings in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer therapy-related cardiac disease in long-term survivors of childhood cancer, with a focus on heart failure.
