ABSTRACT
Breast cancer (BC) and cardiovascular diseases (CVD) are two important “killers” threatening women's life and health.There are several overlapping risk factors and interactive control measures between BC and CVD.BC patients have a higher rate of mental and psychological problems,which may lead to behavior degeneration and treatment interruption,or even affect the body status of and rehabilitation progress,finally result in a bad effect on the life quality and prognosis of breast patients.Crossing field between cardiovasology and psychology has formed a new discipline named psychocardiology,which emphasizes the treatment of CVD while paying great attention to patients' mental-psychological problems.Long-term pain and stress caused by breast cancer and cardiovascular disease can affect patients' psychological state and even lead to anxiety and depression.CVD and mental disorders often coexist in breast cancer patients.Therefore,the clinical practice of breast cancer should strengthen the construction of “double heart medicine”,that is,the construction of breast cancer psychological cardiology and multidisciplinary collaboration.
