title: [Problems of cancer patient home therapy in our clinic].
abstract: We studied the problems of cancer patient home therapy in our clinic over the last 4 years. Cancer patients tend to be younger than other home patients, and their home therapy period is shorter than others. Therefore, hospital doctors should decide the local home doctor of the patients at an early stage. The frequency of emergency calls is higher than with other patients, so cooperation between hospital and clinic is very important.
