- Since the appearance of PTSD in the DSM-III (American Psychiatric Association, 1980), depression was found to frequently cooccur with it (Bottomley, 1998; Massie, 2004; Sellick and Crooks, 1999).
- The understanding of the nature of this comorbidity among gastric cancer patients is crucial for treatment issues. In a previous study I found that among hospital personnel under prolong and continues stress situation an elevated risk for depression was not necessarily related to an elevated risk for PTSD, but almost in all cases of an elevated risk for PTSD an elevated risk for depression also existed (Palgi et al., 2009).
- If so, life threatening and prolonged disease, like gastric cancer, is expected to create high risk for clinical level of depression as well as PTSD. The relation between these diagnoses after the cancer onset has pivotal consequences on the participant’s prognosis (Brintzenhofe-Szoc et al., 2009).
