Quality of life for women with gynecologic cancer.

Abstract:

:For the majority of women, gynecologic cancer is a survivable disease. A brief overview of the recent findings on the psychological and behavioral aspects of gynecologic cancer is provided. The discussion is organized by disease-relevant time points, from prevention to recovery or death. Recognition of the positive results that have been achieved by behavioral sciences can be important in reducing the psychological and behavioral burden of gynecologic cancer.
