Pain management issues as part of the comprehensive care of the cancer patient.

Abstract:

:Pain is a common, feared, but treatable component of malignancy. The ability, however, to successfully relieve the difficult symptoms of progressive disease, including pain, require an understanding of tumor behavior, complications, and cancer therapy. Despite the treatability of cancer pain and multiple clinical options, the clinician faces many challenges to adequate pain management.
