摘要: Health-related quality of life (HRQOL) has recently become an important outcome measure in neuro-oncology. At present, no single gold standard tool exists to HRQOL and there are clear data on the role different determinants their changes during course disease brain tumour (BT) pa- tients. measures may be helpful evalu- ating cancer care outcomes also have been evaluated as early independent predic- tors survival. The negative influence several clinical factors such cognitive impairments, mood disorders, epilepsy reported studies but needs better defined. Moreover, advan- ced end-of-life phase patients still remains a neglected issue. objective this review is examine recent literature focusing most relevant issues Eur Assoc NeuroOncol Mag 2012; 2 (3): 118-22.
