Résumé

Les douleurs liées au cancer, potentiellement fréquentes, peuvent survenir à tous les stades de la maladie. Elles sont de nature et d’étiologie variées et nécessitent une évaluation rigoureuse. Leurs caractéristiques multiples et spécifiques varient en fonction de l’organe atteint et du mécanisme générateur de ces douleurs. L’arsenal thérapeutique est important et oblige dans les situations complexes à une réflexion et une prise en charge pluridisciplinaires.

Abstract

Cancer-related pains, which may be frequent, can occur at each stage of the disease. Their nature and aetiologies are various and need rigorous evaluation. Their multiple and specific characteristics vary according to the affected organ and the mechanism producing these pains. The therapeutic armamentarium is sizeable and, in complex situations, requires multidisciplinary discussion and care.
