Gastrointestinal complaints are the most frequent side effects of antineoplastic chemotherapy behind the bonemarrow depressions. Nearly all cytostatic drugs, favourably used treating gynaecological malignant tumours, show a high complication rats on the part of the digestive organs. Primary an secondary damages can be so serious that the continuation of an effective tumour therapy becomes impossible. Whereas mucous excitement and motility disturbances are caused by local toxicity of cytostatic drugs, on the other hand central and psychogenic factors are of essential importance concerning nausea and vomiting. Therefore all these side effects could not be treated effective antiemetics alone. Only by an ingenious combination of medical treatment, psychological guidance and appropriate nutrition complaints can be relieved so far that the patients quality of life is interfered as less as possible and that a sufficient compliance may be reached.
