Chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy among breast cancer survivors

Abstract

This review investigates that effective cancer treatment enhances the number of survivors in Denmark, but late complications like chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN) are a challenge. CIPN affects sensory nerves and can persist post-treatment. Diagnosis relies on symptoms and the medical history. Treatment options are limited and management faces geographic disparities and clinical capacity issues. Future research targets predictive markers and possible preventative interventions. CIPN, among other late complications, remains a significant concern in survivorship care.
