Quality of life in patients with bone tumors
Abstract
Background. To study quality of life in patients with osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma, giant cell tumor and bone metastases.
Patients and methods. During the period 2012–2015 the data of psychological research in 119 patients with bone tumor were obtained. There were four groups depending on diagnosis: the group of patients with osteosarcoma (41 persons), patients with giant cell tumor (31 persons), the group of chondrosarcoma patients (30 persons) and patients with bone metastases (adenocarcinoma) (17 persons). The methods were: «SF-36 Health Status Survey», Quality of Life Questionnary-Core 30 of European Organization for Research and Treatment Cancer with module Bone Metastases 22, «prevalent emotional condition», «The type of relation to disease», «Coping strategies».
Results. patients with bone metastasis have lower quality of life compared to patients with primary bone tumors. Patients with primary bone tumors are inclined to increased anxiety, low emotional stability and response to disease according to the type «escape into work».
Conclusion. patients with bone metastases have lower quality of life in the parameters general health, pain and fatigue compared to patients with osteosarcoma, chondrosarcoma and giant cell tumor (p<0,05). This corresponds to objective physical state of these patients’ groups. Emotional status in patients with bone metastases was higher than in other groups (p<0,05). It is due to high level of compliance in these patients.
