Introduction: Return to work after cancer is a determinant of patients quality of life. The aims were to describe return-to-work interventions applied in a French University Hospital and to assess its effectiveness in achieving a successful return to work.
Methods: A return-to-work questionnaire was sent to 153 patients who were accompanied by a multidisciplinary return-to-work after cancer consultation.

Objective: This French exploratory qualitative study was designed to identify the psychological factors that influence the decision of some cancer survivors not to return to work, despite their doctor's permission.
Methods: We conducted semi structured interviews with two women and one man.
Background: To help patients suffering from cancer to return to work, a multidisciplinary medico-psycho-social consultation after cancer was created in Upper Normandy in 2006.
