Abstract
I denne studien har vi belyst utfordringer, sykdoms- og behandlingsrelaterte bivirkninger hos pasienter som har blitt behandlet for munn- og/eller halskreft. Ved å analysere data fra en undersøkelse blant medlemmene i Munn- og halskreftforeningen har vi kartlagt ulike plager og hvordan de fordeler seg med hensyn til kreftlokalisasjon og type kreftbehandling. Vi har også kartlagt hvilke av plagene som er assosiert med påvirket OHRQoL.

Diagnostics and management of infective endocarditis post-transcatheter aortic valve implantation - A systematic review
