abstract="BACKGROUND: Due to the lifetime prevalence, patients with previous a psychological illness represent a significant group of oncologic patients. They have numerous particularities. <br><br>RESULTS: These special aspects include altered pain perception, a significantly increased risk of suicide, a sometimes drastically altered ability to communicate, and, finally the necessity of ongoing psychopharmacological treatment in patients with severe and chronic mental illness. <br><br>CONCLUSION: This situation requires the oncologist to take special care during the anamnestic evaluation and necessitates close collaboration with the treating colleagues in psychiatry. Special attention is needed to prevent a deterioration or triggering of psychiatric symptomatology through the interaction of different (pain) medications. © 2018, Springer Medizin Verlag GmbH, ein Teil von Springer Nature.<p /><p>Language: de</p>",
