“…This way they can provide useful professional help, in their area of expertise, to those who have experience cancer, which is "highly destructuring of the self " (Pinto, 2007, p. 31). However, there is sometimes "a price to be paid for cancer survival" (Pinto, 2007, p. 24), the implications of the actual and potential adverse effects of cancer and its treatments (Schwartz, 2003). Based on this assumption, the patients' cure and ability to resume their previous life is an unattainable goal, thus establishing the chronicity of the cancer disease.…”

ResumoResumen R E V I E W P A P E R Fatigue self-management strategies in cancer survivors: a systematic literature review Interpretation of results: Strategies related to physical exercise, energy conservation, cancer-related symptom management, self-efficacy perception, coping style, social networks and social support can contribute effectively to reduce and manage fatigue levels, and promote the management of the disease that triggers the adaptation to this new condition. Conclusion: Strategies related to physical exercise, disease-related symptom management, perceived self-efficacy, coping styles and social support are effective for self-managing fatigue in the survival phase.

“…Survivorship from cancer is not only an end but also a beginning (Schwartz, 2003). This population must endure many years of medical follow-up, live with treatment side effects, and worry about the possibility of cancer recurrence that can occur many years after the first cancer (Cherven & Meacham, 2014; Hull, Morris, Pepine, & Mendenhall, 2003; Li, Lopez, Joyce Chung, Ho, & Chiu., 2013; Yi, Kim, & Tian, 2014).…”

Cancer in adolescents and young adults is an important public health issue, because there are approximately 1 million new cases annually. The distribution of diseases in this age group varies geographically, contributing to differences in survival rates. Although an overall survival rate exceeding 80 % has been reported in optimal circumstances, emerging knowledge about distinctions in tumor biology and enhanced clinical accrual to clinical trials should lead to further gains. The challenges of cancer survivorship demand further attention with a particular focus on the quality of life of survivors and amelioration of the long‐term complications of treatment. Programs in cancer screening and prevention provide potential for considerable benefits in this age group. A renewed perspective on the adolescent and young adult cohort is required; and, in all of these opportunities for change, there are important roles to be played by advocacy groups internationally.
