Abstract

Background: The use of complementary medicine is growing in all fields of oncology.

Objectives: This article aims to highlight the importance of integrating complementary medicine into uro-oncology.

Methods: Based on current literature, an overview of the current state of complementary medicine and its importance in treatment management in uro-oncology is provided, as well as future opportunities and challenges.

Results: Complementary medicine offers a valuable complement to conventional medicine in uro-oncology. While there is very good evidence for some procedures, which is reflected in the S3 guideline on complementary medicine for oncology patients, scientific evidence is lacking for others. Classic natural healing modalities, such as phytotherapy, hydrotherapy, nutrition, and exercise, can help improve patients' physical and psychological well-being, reduce complications and side effects, and achieve treatment goals.

Conclusion: In recent years, complementary medicine has become established in oncology. It offers the opportunity to improve quality of life and treatment management, including in uro-oncology. It will continue to gain importance in the coming years.

【泌尿肿瘤补充医学的整合】。

背景：在肿瘤学的各个领域，补充医学的应用正在增长。目的：本文旨在强调将补充医学纳入泌尿肿瘤学的重要性。方法：在现有文献的基础上，综述补充医学的现状及其在泌尿肿瘤治疗管理中的重要性，以及未来的机遇和挑战。结果：辅助医学为泌尿肿瘤常规医学提供了有价值的补充。虽然S3指南中关于肿瘤患者补充医学的一些程序有很好的证据，但其他程序缺乏科学证据。经典的自然治疗方式，如植物疗法、水疗法、营养和运动，可以帮助改善患者的身心健康，减少并发症和副作用，实现治疗目标。结论：近年来，补充医学在肿瘤学领域逐渐确立。它提供了改善生活质量和治疗管理的机会，包括在泌尿肿瘤。在未来几年，它将继续变得越来越重要。
