Abstract: Body image is a critical issue for cancer patients undergoing reconstructive surgery, as they can experience disfigurement and functional impairment. Distress related to appearance changes can lead to various psychosocial difficulties, and patients are often reluctant to discuss these issues with their healthcare team. Our goals were to design and evaluate a screening tool to aid providers in identifying patients who may benefit from referral for specialized psychosocial care to treat body image concerns.

Abstract: Many women describe ‘positive adjustment’ as a consequence of having breast cancer. It is unclear whether positive experiences reflect the absence of anxiety and depression or are part of a separate process of adjustment. Existing measures are not specific to breast cancer and may lack validity. Our aims were as follows: (1) to develop a valid questionnaire to measure positive adjustment after breast cancer; (2) to clarify whether it measures aspects distinct from anxiety and depression and (3) to suggest when positive adjustment typically emerges.

Abstract: A high percentage of employed breast cancer patients returned to work after treatment, and workplace accommodations played an important role in their return. In addition, perceived employer discrimination because of cancer was negatively associated with return to work for breast cancer survivors. Employers seem to have a pivotal role in breast cancer patients’ successful return to work.
