Abstract:

This chapter deals with depression as a common syndrome affecting 15% to 30% of cancer patients. It impairs patients’ well-being in multiple aspects, as well as being associated with shorter survival. A wide range of physical, neurological, and mental conditions are listed as key differentials. Cancer-related fatigue is one of the common differentials. Treatment of depression should be based on severity of illness and on patients’ preferences. Good communication between medical providers and patients, and holistic care based on comprehensive needs’ assessment, which is usually done by using sc

Abstract:

This chapter provides an overview of the consequences of a cancer diagnosis for female patients and their male caregivers, mostly partners or spouses. The majority of the couples adjust well; only a minority shows elevated levels of psychological distress a year or more after diagnosis. Nevertheless, the literature shows that cancer and its treatment may have a considerable impact on sexual functioning, fertility, and other aspects of the relationship. Communication between patients and partners and between couples and health care professionals plays a key role in solutions to these problems.

Abstract:

The Art of Conversation in Cancer Care: Lessons for Caregivers, is organized around the themes of mortal time and healing conversation with patients and their caregivers. Mortal time is not so much a specific period, but rather, the psychological experience encountering mortality that accompanies the diagnosis of cancer. The book has three major sections. In part I, the many ways people experience mortal time are articulated. These include a range of adaptive and less adaptive methods such as dysfunctional avoidance. In part II, the basic elements of healing conversation are described, with an

Literature on adolescents and young adults (AYA) with cancer has largely focused on the biopsychosocial challenges of this developmental period, with limited attention paid to the role of gender or to gender differences in adjustment and outcomes.

Abstract:

Surgery and radiotherapy for cancers can disrupt mental health through direct biological mechanisms in addition to the well-described psychological distress associated with the physical consequences of treatment. Upper bowel surgery and bilateral oophorectomy both frequently provoke psychopathology. Total gastrectomy, or ileal resection, causes an inevitable vitamin B12 deficiency. The molecular mechanisms by which these surgical treatments provoke depressive symptoms, or even a dementia, are considered. Raised homocysteine levels and reduced SAM availability are involved.

Abstract: Patients with head and neck cancer face multiple, often severe psychological and functional problems associated with the diagnosis and treatment of their disease including alterations in or loss of human voice, disruptions in speech production, and deterioration of swallowing ability. These functional changes significantly compromise a patient’s body image and can occur as a result of the disease as well as its primary treatment, whether surgery, radiation therapy (RT), or both.

Visceral pain is pain that arises from, in, or around internal organs. Common examples include chest pain and functional abdominal pain.

Understanding the basis of referred pain is a key component of patient assessment. The complexity of visceral nociception and pain signalling is being unravelled through anatomical, immunohistoc

Abstract: The implications of functional loss following cancer is an area of psychosocial oncology that is rarely ventured.

Abstract:

The ability to sustain a sense of meaning is significantly associated with important elements of end-of-life despair. Meaning-centered group psychotherapy (MCGP), an eight-session group psychotherapy intervention, was developed to help patients with advanced cancer sustain or enhance a sense of meaning. MCGP has been shown to significantly improve spiritual well-being, sense of meaning, and quality of life and to diminish anxiety, depression, hopelessness, symptom burden distress, and desire for death. The mechanism of this benefit is through the enhancement of meaning. MCGP appears to be a be

Among the advanced cancer population, existential concerns are major issues that promote significant distress. For patients who are facing death, meaning and the preservation of meaning are not only clinically and existentially important but also central concepts to a therapeutic intervention.

Abstract:

The importance of spiritual well-being and the role of "meaning" in moderating depression, hopelessness and desire for death in terminally-ill cancer and AIDS patients has been well-supported by research, and has led many palliative clinicians to focus on the development of non-pharmacologic interventions that can help their patients address these issues.

Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a devastating condition with progressive loss of movement, speech, and respiratory function, and no available cure.

However, many patients adjust successfully in the course of the disease and maintain good psychological well-being, so that a decline in psychological well-being does not necessarily accompany loss of physical function.
