Abstract：
INTRODUCTION:It is known that the quality of life (QoL) of patients surgically treated for head and neck cancer (HNC) is significantly enhanced by rehabilitation. It is also known that some of these patients will not quit smoking. AIM:To assess if smoking hampers rehabilitation-related QoL enhancement after surgery. METHOD:Applying the H&N 35 questionnaire of EORTC, we assessed the QoL of 38 smoking and non-smoking patients who underwent surgical therapy for HNC and subsequent rehabilitation. QoL was assessed after surgery (after the healing period) and 6 months after rehabilitation. RESULTS:While the QoL enhancement of nonsmokers was significant in almost all aspects, that of smoking patients did not reach the level of significance on a number of scales. The results suggest that smoking does not hamper rehabilitation directly, rather, it prevents rehabilitation from exerting its beneficial effects through its own effects. CONCLUSIONS:Smoking is a factor that measurably acts against the efforts to enhance the QoL of the surgically treated HNC patient. Therefore, it is essential that emphasis is put on smoking cessation right from the cancer diagnosis also for this reason. Orv. Hetil., 2017, 158(5), 172-177.
