[Psychogenic reactions in cancer patients]
Abstract:
An overall (at random) study of 183 patients with cancer of the stomach or rectum at an oncological hospital showed that all cases had certain psychogenic reactions, which differed both by their clinical expression and severity. The type and severity of psychogenic reactions correlated with the stage of treatment (diagnostic, preoperational, etc.) sex, age, education and the localization of the tumor and premorbid personality traits. The paper offers data on the use of combined treatment (psychopharmacological and psychotherapeutic impact) aimed at removal of psychogenic disorders.
