Influence of breast cancer on life satisfaction in the elderly patient
This cross-sectional, retrospective analysis indicates, that chemotherapy does not impact the patients´ life satisfaction. BI and CCI as well as obesity, polymedication and level of education are significantly associated with a lower satisfaction. These data should be taken into account in the decision-making process to improve the medical care and support of elderly breast cancer patients.
