Currently available rehabilitation techniques for patients with gynecological cancer

Abstract

The development of new rehabilitation techniques for cancer patients is relevant, on the one hand, due to the increasing cancer incidence, and, on the other hand, due to breakthroughs in cancer treatment. Following successful treatment, female patients often do not receive due attention since there are no recommendations for their further management. All patients with gynecological cancer undoubtedly need further medical and social support after cancer therapy since many of them face a lot of challenges related to impaired physiological functions, psychological problems, the need to rebuild professional and family relationships, i. e., decreasing quality of life. Therefore, there is an obvious need for the development of cancer rehabilitation programs. This type of care must be available to everyone regardless of their social status, financial welfare and place of residence. The full spectrum of rehabilitation activities should be based on the latest researches and guidelines.
