Abstract

Breast cancer patients in resource-poor countries have a profoundly impaired quality of life. This study showed significantly lower emotional well-being domain scores in post-mastectomy patients on adjuvant chemotherapy, pre-menopausal women having breast cancer and in younger female patients. There is need to address this anomaly.
