Abstract

The diagnosis and treatment of cancer not only impose physical but also significant psychosocial consequences [Citation3]. As the number of long-term HL survivors continues to rise, understanding these consequences becomes crucial. The disease, and treatment thereof, potentially influences the lifestyle, relationships, and psychological well-being of survivors profoundly, necessitating comprehensive care that goes beyond physical health. Through insights into the psychosocial impact of a HL diagnosis, we may develop tailored strategies and interventions to promote the emotional well-being alongside physical health in these, often young survivors.
