Durante o período do tratamento da doença, são necessárias constantes adaptações devido às perdas e aos sintomas vivenciados pela paciente. Os resultados da qualidade de vida podem ser importantes auxiliadores na prática clínica, além de ajudar o paciente a identificar as necessidades para as adaptações. Dessa forma, esta revisão objetiva investigar o impacto do tratamento de câncer de mama sobre a qualidade de vida. Muitos são os conflitos encontrados na literatura com relação aos efeitos do tratamento, e vários são os instrumentos utilizados para medir a qualidade de vida, porém, de modo geral, o tratamento para câncer de mama apresenta grande influência negativa na qualidade de vida dessas mulheres. No entanto, diante do real impacto do tratamento para câncer de mama, as mulheres necessitam de informação sobre as conseqüências dos tratamentos, orientação sobre a nova condição e de suporte psicológico durante todo o tratamento.INCA2008-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionRevisão de literaturaapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/170010.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2008v54n4.1700Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 54 No. 4 (2008): Oct./Nov./Dec.; 367-371Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 54 Núm. 4 (2008): oct./nov.dic.; 367-371Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 54 n. 4 (2008): out./nov./dez.; 367-3712176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1700/1004Lotti, Renata Cardoso Baracho Barra, Alexandre de Almeida Dias, Rosângela Correa Makluf, Ana Sílvia Diniz info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:22:08Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1700Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:22:08Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
