Abstract

This study was carried out examine the changes in body image perceptions of individuals who had undergone surgery for breast cancer in the last year, in the early and late postoperative period. The study, designed as a relational and descriptive type, was conducted with 120 patients who undergone surgery for breast cancer between 01.05.2022 and 01.05.2023 in a private hospital in Kocaeli. Data were collected by telephone interviews with patients through the 18-question "Patient Diagnosis Form" and "Breast Cancer Body Image Scale (BCBIS)" prepared by the researcher. Statistical evaluation of the data SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) program was used and the data were evaluated at the p<0.05 significance level. Of the women participating (n=120) in the research, 54.2% are between the ages of 32-50, 77.5% are married, 60% have a bachelor's degree and 40.8% are employed. Patients; 10% stated that after the surgical intervention 1-3 months, 31.7% 3-6 months, 15.8% 6-9 months, 42.5% 9-12 months. It was determined that 50.8% of the patients underwent surgery while in the 2nd stage of the disease, and 20% of the surgeries underwent total mastectomy. The patients' mean BCBIS score was 107.79±1.69 and it was determined that they had a moderate level of negative body image perception. It was found that those who had 1-3 months and 3-6 months after surgical treatment had significantly lower mean BCBIS scores and therefore more negative body images than those who had 6-9 months and 9-12 months. According to the findings of the study, it was determined that the negative body image perceptions of patients who underwent surgery for breast cancer were perceived more negatively in the early period (in the first six months) than in the late period.

Özet

Bu çalışma meme kanseri nedeniyle son bir yıl içinde ameliyat olmuş olan bireylerin beden imajı algılarının cerrahi sonrası erken ve geç dönemde değişimini incelemek amacıyla yapıldı. İlişkisel ve tanımlayıcı tipte tasarlanan çalışma, Kocaeli ilinde özel bir hastanede 01.05.2022-01.05.2023 tarihleri arasında meme kanseri nedeniyle cerrahi geçiren 120 hasta ile yapıldı. Veriler araştırmacı tarafından hazırlanan 18 soruluk “Hasta Tanılama Formu” ve “Meme Kanseri Beden İmajı Ölçeği (MKBİÖ)” aracılığıyla hastalarla telefon ile görüşülerek toplandı. Verilerin istatistiksel değerlendirilmesinde SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences) paket programı kullanıldı ve p<0,05 anlamlılık düzeyinde değerlendirildi. Araştırmaya katılan kadınların (n=120), %54,2’si 32-50 yaş aralığında, %77,5’i evli, %60’ı lisans mezunu ve %40,8’i bir işte çalışmaktadır. Hastaların %10’u cerrahi müdahaleden sonra 1-3 ay, %31,7’si 3-6 ay, %15,8’i 6-9 ay, %42,5’i ise 9-12 ay süre geçtiğini belirtmiştir. Hastaların %50,8’inin hastalığın 2. evresinde iken cerrahi geçirdiği ve geçirilen cerrahilerin %20’sine total mastektomi girişimi yapıldığı belirlendi. Hastaların MKBİÖ puan ortalamaları 107,79±1,69 olup orta düzeyde olumsuz beden imajı algısı olduğu belirlendi. Cerrahi tedaviden 1-3 ay ve 3-6 ay süre geçirmiş olanların 6-9 ay ile 9-12 ay geçirmiş olanlara göre MKBİÖ puan ortalamaları anlamlı olarak daha düşük dolayısıyla daha olumsuz beden imajına sahip oldukları bulundu. Çalışmanın bulgularına göre meme kanseri nedeniyle cerrahi geçiren hastaların olumsuz beden imajı algılarının erken dönemde (ilk altı ayda) geç döneme göre daha olumsuz olarak algılandığı belirlendi.
