Clinical Trial Summary

To evaluate the effects of aromatase inhibitors on lower extremity ultrasonographic measurements, static and dynamic balance scores in breast cancer patients using aromatase inhibitors


Clinical Trial Description

Breast cancer is the most common cancer in women. 2/3 of breast cancer patients are estrogen and progesterone receptor positive. Tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors are preferred in most of these patients depending on menopausal status. The increase in the life expectancy of breast cancer patients with medical treatments pushes us to find the cause of the drug side effects encountered during this extended life span and work on preventing/correcting them. It has been proven that aromatase inhibitors cause arthralgia in 40-50% of patients and a loss in bone mineral density, leading to a tendency towards osteoporosis. In this patient group, changes in the tendon and tendon sheath were also observed in ultrasonographic and magnetic resonance imaging and were stated to be the cause of the current symptoms. In the literature, breast cancer patients have been evaluated in detail in terms of balance, and it has been shown that static and dynamic body balance is worse in this group compared to the control group. Among the breast cancer population, the presence of arthralgia in the patient group using aromatase inhibitors causes an increased risk of falls. In addition, it is thought that lower extremity tendon changes may be a factor in balance and proprioception disorders. Based on this information, quantitative evaluation of static and dynamic balance in patients is important since there is an increase in the frequency of falls and a tendency to osteoporosis in patients using aromatase inhibitors in breast cancer. No similar study has been found in the literature. ;
