Abstract Introduction: Malignant neoplasms of bone originating from the supporting tissues of the body of mesinchymal origin are heterogeneous in clinical and histological terms. In most cases, the etiology of these tumors is unknown. Histologically, sarcomas are classified into three main types. Chondrosarcoma (31% of sarcomas), osteosarcoma - originating from bone tissue (also accounts for 31% of sarcomas), Ewing sarcoma - originating from neuroectodermal tissue (accounts for 14% of sarcomas). The aim of this study was to present a program of comprehensive rehabilitation after LUMIC resection arthroplasty with reconstruction of the proximal part of the femur using the Mutars system as a result of pelvic chondrosarcoma treatment. Materials and methods: The paper describes a case of a patient diagnosed with left pelvic chondrosarcoma with a pathological fracture and destruction of the left hip joint. Results: In the rehabilitation program, both inpatient and outpatient, many methods of therapy have been used in order to restore the patient to the highest possible fitness as quickly as possible. The therapy was based on such exercises and methods as: PNF method, methods of visceral therapy, active exercises and methods of osteopathy. Conclusion: Rehabilitation is an indispensable element of the treatment of cancer patients. The introduction of modern techniques, such as manual therapy and osteopathy to rehabilitation, has a positive effect on the effectiveness of therapy.

Malignant neoplasms of the digestive system occupy a leading place among all cancer patients. Approximately one third of all cancer deaths worldwide was linked to improper nutrition and diet, and took the second place as theoretically preventable causes of cancer. Modern methods of surgical treatment of cancer patients have an aggressive nature, causing pronounced stress in the body and give rise in metabolic disorders with changes in nutritional status. One of the prevention methods is the use of nutritional support, especially in patients who received radical surgery.

The Relationship

Relevance: Today, the restorative treatment of patients with malignant neoplasms remains a relevant issue. This section of oncology is the most laborious and requires an integrated approach. The concept of Quality of Life (QoL) increasingly appears in clinical trials, along with survival. The study aimed to review the literature on various aspects of medical rehabilitation of cancer patients. Results: The selected sources analysis suggests the necessity of an integrated approach to the restorative treatment of cancer patients because the changes in these patients’ life status are often pronounced. These changes might involve the patient’s physical condition and its various functional indicators; psycho-emotional state, with the relationship between predictive perception, QoL and the patient’s mood; and the social status, which is decisive for the patient’s reintegration into society. Such a multilateral approach will cover all aspects of patients’ life activity and address the main focus of cancer patients’ medical rehabilitation – their QoL improvement. Conclusion: Implementation of an integrated medical rehabilitation program for cancer patients will promote a maximum possible restoration of these patients’ life conditions and facilitate their physical and psycho-social adaptation after specialized treatment.

The Impact

Finding opportunities to improve treatment outcomes of cancer patients remains a difficult and unresolved problem. Modern anticancer treatment due to the intensity and molecular biological orientation allows achieving higher efficiency and theoretically reducing the complications frequency. At the same time, the “increase in efficiency” in the modern oncology really exists, but a “decrease in the incidence of complications” is far from its solution. In many ways, the problems of diagnosis, treatment and monitoring of complications are associated with the impact on complex physiological processes in the body of an oncological patient. Timely implementation of modern and adequate programs for the prevention and treatment of these complications defines the concept of “supportive therapy”, which provides at least half of the effectiveness of anticancer treatment.The Multinational Association of Supportive Care in Cancer (MASCC) was formed in 1990. The main tasks of the association were the creation of supportive care system, its popularization and accumulation of scientific data. The MASCC was used not only oncologists experience, but also of specialists working in almost all areas of medicine. Supportive therapy provides prevention and treatment of complications from the moment of malignant disease develops, at all stages of anticancer treatment, during the rehabilitation period, and in patients in the terminal phase.An important stage in the development of maintenance care in Russia was the holding of annual conferences in Moscow with the support of MASCC. Russia is included in the European MASCC group and in working group on supportive therapy and palliative care of the Chemotherapists Society (ESMO). The Russian Society of Supportive care in Oncology (RASSC) was organized In Russia on June 1, 2017. In recent years, the main directions of supportive care have been developed in our country. Today, supportive therapy is an obligatory component of anticancer programs, which allows the patient to cope with severe but potentially reversible disorders of vital organs at all stages of treatment. This is a real way to increase the treatment efficacy and improve the quality of life of cancer patients.

This review presents current data on the role of nutritional support in patients with cancer. The main reasons for the decrease in body weight, protein-energy deficiency in the development of malignant neoplasms are described. The data substantiating the appointment of dietary food products in various phases of the disease to patients receiving systemic anticancer therapy (chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy) for a long time, and to cancer patients who underwent volumetric abdominal surgery are presented. The mechanisms of intoxication arising as a result of the disease itself, as well as a result of prolonged polychemoor irradiation therapy, are described in detail. The concept and mechanisms of endogenous intoxication syndrome are given. Special attention is paid to the role of the cytochrome system of the liver in detoxification processes. It has been shown that the accumulation of toxic metabolites in cancer disrupts the activity of the organs of detoxification and excretion, metabolites accumulate in tissues, which leads to difficulty in regulating the functions of the body and its protection from intoxication factors. The results of clinical studies of the data are presented and their effectiveness of the use of specialized dietary products of domestic production for cancer patients is presented. Detoxification protein cocktail for cancer patients (based on animal protein), Lactose-free detoxification protein cocktail for cancer patients (based on plant protein) and Drink detoxification for cancer patients (fruit-based). These specialized products have promote tonic, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, analgesic, anti-toxic, detoxifying properties. It has been shown that dietary products contribute to the restoration of the concentration in the blood of the most important enzymes of antitoxic liver defense – ALT and AST, gamma-HT, total and direct bilirubin, and urea.

Subject. In the modern world, the prevalence of cancer is growing every year, in this regard, this pathology is one of the most pressing problems in medicine. There is no doubt that malignant neoplasms have a complex interaction with the body. The General mechanisms of occurrence and progression of the tumor process are intensively studied, and to date, a huge amount of material on molecular and clinical Oncology has been accumulated, it is used in related disciplines. The most important sections of dentistry are the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the mucous membrane. Often, clinical manifestations in the oral cavity are one of the first symptoms indicating a General somatic disease. This article covers the study of the dental status of patients with different localizations of cancer. Objective ― to study the incidence of dental diseases of patients with cancer. Methodology. To conduct a study medical examination of patients with different localizations of cancer was held to determine dental: the definition of DMF-Index, PMA-index, Parodontal Index, and the condition of the mucous membrane of the oral cavity and periodontal tissues. Cancer patients receiving chemotherapy and radiation therapy, patients who refused to participate in the survey were excluded from the survey. Results. The study included 526 patients. The predominance of certain types of dental diseases among patients with a particular cancer pathology was revealed. Conclusions. Our study showed that all patients had decompensated forms of caries. The most common dental diseases combined with cancer are hyperplasia filiform papillae (K14.3), the "geographic" language (K14.1). Periodontal disease occurred in 69,5 % of cases among cancer patients.

Abstract Background The CBR3 V244M single nucleotide polymorphism has been linked to the risk of anthracycline-related cardiomyopathy in survivors of childhood cancer. There have been limited prospective studies examining the impact of CBR3 V244M on the risk for anthracycline-related cardiotoxicity in adult cohorts. Objectives This study evaluated the presence of associations between CBR3 V244M genotype status and changes in echocardiographic parameters in breast cancer patients undergoing doxorubicin treatment. Methods We recruited 155 patients with breast cancer receiving treatment with doxorubicin (DOX) at Roswell Park Comprehensive Care Center (Buffalo, NY) to a prospective single arm observational pharmacogenetic study. Patients were genotyped for the CBR3 V244M variant. 92 patients received an echocardiogram at baseline (t0 month) and at 6 months (t6 months) of follow up after DOX treatment. Apical two-chamber and four-chamber echocardiographic images were used to calculate volumes and left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) using Simpson’s biplane rule by investigators blinded to all patient data. Volumetric indices were evaluated by normalizing the cardiac volumes to the body surface area (BSA). Results Breast cancer patients with CBR3 GG and AG genotypes both experienced a statistically significant reduction in LVEF at 6 months following initiation of DOX treatment for breast cancer compared with their pre-DOX baseline study. Patients homozygous for the CBR3 V244M G allele (CBR3 V244) exhibited a further statistically significant decrease in LVEF at 6 months following DOX therapy in comparison with patients with heterozygous AG genotype. We found no differences in age, pre-existing cardiac diseases associated with myocardial injury, cumulative DOX dose, or concurrent use of cardioprotective medication between CBR3 genotype groups. Conclusions CBR3 V244M genotype status is associated with changes in echocardiographic parameters suggestive of early anthracycline-related cardiomyopathy in subjects undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer.

BACKGROUND: Fibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic condition characterized by widespread muscular or musculoskeletal pain of at least 3 months’ duration, occurring above and below the waist, on both sides of the body. OBJECTIVE: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of a rehabilitation program based on motor imagery versus a conventional exercise program in FM in terms of pain, functional and psychological outcomes. METHODS: Twenty-nine female subjects were randomly assigned to a group receiving motor imagery-based rehabilitation (MIG) or to a control group (CG) performing conventional rehabilitation. Outcome assessments were performed before (T0) and after 10 sessions of treatment (T1) and at a 12-week follow-up (T2). Pain, function and psychological measurements were conducted by means of different questionnaires. RESULTS: Both treatments improved all outcomes at post-treatment (T1) and follow-up (T2). The MIG showed a significant improvement in anxiety disorder associated with FM with respect to the CG, as well as improvements in coping strategies. CONCLUSIONS: Rehabilitation treatment based on motor imagery showed a stronger effect on anxiety and coping behavior than traditional physiotherapy in patients with FM. Integrated psychological support would be desirable in this setting. Further research is needed to explore the aspects investigated in more depth.
