Abstract:
:An attempt is made to define the quality of life in terms of the patient with gynecologic cancer. The effect of the diagnosis of cancer and its recurrence or its terminal state on the quality of life is considered. Possible methods of assessing the patient's individual feelings about the quality of her life are reviewed and suggestions made for incorporating these into plans of management at all stages of the disease.

杂志文章abstract:BACKGROUND:Previous studies have shown a decrease in cervical cancer associated with intrauterine device use. It has been hypothesized that intrauterine device use may alter the natural history of human papillomavirus infections, preempting development of precancerous lesions of the cervix and cervical cancer, but the ...
