| description | The content of this paper is an overview of the results of some available
foreign studies related to the experience of violence against women
suffering from various malignancies, especially breast and gynecological
cancers. The topic is both specific and complex because it considers double
victimization - malignancy and violence. The idea for this review paper
emerged from author’s observations during the years of her clinical and
psychotherapy practice, who after 16 years of work with the population of
children, adolescents and adults with malignant diseases at the Institute of
Oncology and Radiology of Serbia, continued to deal with counseling and
psychotherapy of adult oncology patients and their family members in private
practice. This paper is intended to stimulate research on violence against
women suffering from malignant diseases in Serbia. The author’s experience
and observations from her daily psychotherapy practice indicate that
violence, especially partner violence against women suffering from malignant
diseases, both in the years before the onset of the disease and during and
after the end of combined oncological treatment, is, unfortunately, rather
present in Serbia. For a more comprehensive and systematic insight into this
issue, it is necessary to conduct an “anonymous” national victimization
survey to cover women aged 19-75 who are treated for the most common
malignancies typical for women (breast and gynecological cancers) in all
reference national oncology centers across Serbia. |
