Tidig och individualiserad cancerrehabilitering viktig

Dunberger, Gail ; Hellbom, Maria ; Bergmark, Karin and Ahlberg, Karin (2015) In Läkartidningen 112.
Abstract

Survivors of gynecological cancer experience physical, psychological and existential consequences. Late gastrointestinal and urinary bladder symptoms, sexual dysfunction, including underlying physical and relational aspects, as well as lymphedema and fatigue, are common complaints. This may lead to reduced quality of life and social functioning and cancer rehabilitation is needed. Cancer rehabilitation, focusing on the individual cancer survivor and her specific needs, starting at diagnosis and continuing throughout cancer treatment and at follow-ups, is necessary.
