The history of Finnish pediatric hematology started in the late 1940s, but this field of pediatrics was not officially acknowledged before 1979. The Children's Hospital, University of Helsinki started hematological services in 1950 but at that time there was no position for a specialist--it was a "spare time" work until 1980 when a hematology/oncology ward was established led by a full time specialist. Since the late 1950s the pediatric department of the Aurora Hospital in Helsinki has made an important contribution to the development of Finnish pediatric hematology. The Blood Transfusion Service of the Finnish Red Cross has also played an important role in Finnish pediatric hematology. The remaining four University Hospitals have now established wards for pediatric Hematology/oncology.
芬兰儿科血液学的历史始于20世纪40年代末，但直到1979年，这一儿科领域才得到官方认可。赫尔辛基大学儿童医院于1950年开始提供血液学服务，但当时没有专科医生职位——直到1980年由一名全职专科医生领导的血液学/肿瘤学病房成立之前，这都是“业余”工作。自20世纪50年代末以来，赫尔辛基奥罗拉医院的儿科部门为芬兰儿科血液学的发展做出了重要贡献。芬兰红十字会输血服务中心在芬兰儿科血液学中也发挥了重要作用。其余四家大学医院现已设立了儿科血液学/肿瘤学病房。
