Abstract

As part of the XXVII Russian Oncology Congress, a section “Nutritional support — an underestimated tool in the hands of an oncologist. How to ensure successful continuous antitumor therapy?” was held. The presented message outlines the abstracts of the reports of the section participants.

Report by A.R. Gevorkov concerned the relevance of nutritional support in oncology, the negative impact of nutritional deficiency on the results of surgical, drug and radiation treatment of cancer patients at all stages. Report by O.A. Obukhova was devoted to the effectiveness of nutritional support during surgical treatment of cancer patients, based on the results of well-planned and executed clinical studies, including the first domestic prospective multicenter randomized trial of perioperative high-protein enteral nutrition NUTRILUNC. Report by M.Yu. Kukosh reflected the role of rehabilitation in the continuity of antitumor treatment and the place of nutritional support in the corresponding rehabilitation program.

The authors concluded that nutritional support at all stages of antitumor treatment is relevant, effective and safe, and called on oncologists to widely introduce artificial nutrition into clinical practice.
