Group medical visits in cancer survivorship care: a scoping review

Group medical visits could be a key component of multidisciplinary care for cancer survivors. We summarize existing data on multidisciplinary group medical visits in cancer survivorship and emphasize the need for further research, including evaluation of ongoing initiatives in this space.

Grief Makes Us Time Travelers (Gift Article) A neuroscientist studying memory, I used to believe time was linear. Then my mother had a stroke.

As an oncologist, I get constant reminders that holidays are joyful & meaningful milestones, but not every yr & not for everyone. If you are with #grief, I hope this will remind you that you belong to something vast & are not alone.

What about delayed immune mediated toxicity?
Jacobs et al:
700 pts all stages; 84% TNBC, 74% Early-stage
Incidence: 61% iTox any time; 34% delayed iTox

8.6% with iTox AFTER TREATMENT
4.7% with iTox 1 year AFTER ICI INITIATION

Should we be checking endocrine labs for years after ICI ?
