目的 本研究的目的是调查患有和未患有乳腺癌的女性对其身体形象的自尊。方法采用定量病例对照研究，对 90 名患有乳腺癌的女性进行评估，将其纳入病例组，将 77 名未患乳腺癌的女性纳入对照组。在数据收集方面，使用了身体满意度量表（BSS）（该量表在巴西进行了调整和验证）以及罗森伯格自尊问卷。数据统计分析采用社会科学统计软件（IBM-SPSS，芝加哥，伊利诺伊州，美国）16.0版。结果与未患乳腺癌的女性相比，患有乳腺癌的女性对与外表相关的身体形象更加不满意。与未接受新辅助化疗的癌症患者相比，接受新辅助化疗的女性对自己的外表更加不满意。与接受保乳治疗的女性相比，接受乳房切除术的女性对自己的外表更加不满意。 结论 与未患乳腺癌的女性相比，患有乳腺癌的女性对自己的身体形象更加不满意，尤其是在乳房切除术后或化疗期间。研究发现，对自己的身体形象不满意的患者的自尊心会受到负面影响。
Objective The objective of this study was to investigate the self-esteem of women with and without breast cancer regarding their body image.Methods A quantitative, case-control study in which 90 women with breast cancer were evaluated in the case group, and 77 women without breast cancer in the control group. For data collection, the body satisfaction scale (BSS), a scale adapted and validated in Brazil, and the Rosenberg self-esteem questionnaire were used. For the statistical analysis of the data, the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences software (IBM-SPSS, Chicago, Il, US), version 16.0 was used.Results Compared with thewomen without breast cancer, those with breast cancer were more dissatisfied with body image related to appearance. Women undergoing neoadjuvant chemotherapy were more dissatisfied with their appearance compared with those with cancer who were not undergoing this treatment. Mastectomy also accounted for more dissatisfaction concerning appearance among women who underwent the procedure compared with the women who were submitted to breast-conserving therapy.Conclusion Women with breast cancer were more dissatisfied with their body image compared with those without breast cancer, particularly following mastectomy or during chemotherapy. The self-esteem was found to be negatively affected in patients who were dissatisfied with their body image.
