Original language description
Background: Survival rate of breast cancer patients has improved signifi cantly in recent years. Cancer dia gnosis represents a great psychological distress for patients which may not stem solely from the disease itself. Patients may experience higher distress even several years after treatment.

Results: The over all rate of psychological distress (GSI) 4.5 years after breast cancer dia gnosis does not diff er significantly (p = 0.703) from the healthy population. Also, we did not fi nd any statistically significant relationship between the observed factors and the level of psychological distress in breast cancer patients. Conclusion: Screening investigation showed no diff erence in the psychological distress in breast cancer patients 4.5 years following diagnosis, compared with the healthy population.
