“Psychological Care for Adolescent Cancer Patients

This case report authored by Drs. Mario Giordano, Giulia Zucchetti et al., reveals discrepancies in emotional and behavioral symptom reporting between a 16-year-old with metastatic nasopharyngeal carcinoma and his mother, using tools like Child Behavior Checklist (CBCL), Youth Self-Report (YSR), Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS), and Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R).
