- W1546445950 abstract "Background: Many breast cancer patients suffer hair loss due to chemotherapy, and not only scalp hair loss, but also eyebrow loss, eyelash loss and nail changes induced by chemotherapy are traumatic for patients. These side effects diminish self-esteem and greatly reduce quality of life. However, there has been little research in this field until now. To clarify the actual situation concerning appearance issues in breast cancer patients who received adjuvant chemotherapy, and to consider a support system for these patients, we conducted a questionnaire survey. Methods: Disease-free breast cancer patients who have received adjuvant chemotherapy containing anthracycline and/or taxane within 5 years were recruited from 47 hospitals or clinics in Japan from April to October 2013. The patients participating in this survey completed a 65-question questionnaire concerning appearance issues (48) and their perception of physical and non-physical side effects (17). The drugs administered and treatment period were filled out by their doctors beforehand. The completed questionnaires were mailed directly to the data center by the patients. Results: A total of 1511 patients returned the questionnaire to the data center with a response rate of 82% (1511/1853). Since 33 patients did not meet the entry criteria, the questionnaires returned by 1478 patients were analyzed in this survey. The mean age was 54.7 years (+-10.4, range 17-79). The distribution of the patients by time from the end of chemotherapy to this survey was as follows: Conclusions: Our survey demonstrated the outline of hair loss and appearance issues in breast cancer patients who received chemotherapy. Hair loss is the most distressing and occasionally long-lasting side effect. Lack of information is a serious problem. These facts suggested a need for long-time and careful support of these patients.
