Abstract

With the continually growing number of cancer survivors in the past decades there is an increased interest in understanding and treating the adverse events of cancer therapy, which damage the survivor's quality of life. Post-treatment cognitive impairment (chemobrain) is well known in women with breast cancer and other patients with malignancy. The goal of the current short review is to arouse the caregivers' attention to the not severe, but real problem.
