Abstract
Patients who underwent radical antitumor treatment for ovarian cancer , borderline ovarian tumors , often experience a severe range of morphofunctional and psychological disorders . Frequent complications are postovariectomy syndrome , sexual dysfunction , anxiety and depression , and chronic pelvic pain , which reduces the overall quality of life . Numerous studies show that for this category of patients , the preservation of labor activity and social significance is an extremely important aspect . This dictates the need to organize rehabilitation measures that significantly increase the quality of life of oncogynecological patients and contribute to the restoration of their professional and social functioning .
