Este caso complejo, nos introduce en la dificultad inherente al enfoque del sufrimiento existencial al final de la vida. El sufrimiento existencial está a menudo presente en enfermos terminales asociado a depresión y a veces al deseo de adelantar la muerte. Es imprescindible un enfoque y seguimiento multidisciplinar dada la complejidad que supone esta entidad para el equipo sanitario. Asistir a un enfermo con sufrimiento existencial, pone en evidencia nuestras limitaciones y dificultades para tomar decisiones

Existential distress is often present in terminal illness and may be associated with syndromes such as depression and desire for hastened death. A multi- modal and interdisciplinary approach is essential in addressing existential distress.
