摘要

Cancer treatment imposes significant physiological and psychological demands on patients whose reserves are already under strain. Prehabilitation, the systematic optimisation of physical, nutritional, and psychological condition prior to cancer treatment, has emerged as a promising strategy to build reserve and accelerate recovery. Yet critical questions remain around patient selection, optimal dose and delivery, and equitable implementation. In this editorial, we outline the current state of evidence, key challenges, and emerging priorities, and invite contributions to BMC Cancer’s “Prehabilitation in Cancer Care” Special Collection.
