[摘要]目的 探讨恶性肿瘤病人抑郁症的发生情况及其影响因素。方法 采用Zung抑郁量表对183例已确诊并了解病情的恶性肿瘤病人及180例健康人进行问卷调查。结果 恶性肿瘤病人抑郁症的发生率明显高于健康对照人群，差异有高度统计学意义( χ2 =18.97，P <0.01)。不同文化程度恶性肿瘤病人抑郁症发生率比较，差异无显著性( χ2 =0.11，P >0.05)。不同年龄恶性肿瘤病人抑郁症发生率比较，差异有显著意义( χ2 =4.03，P < 0.05 )。恶性肿瘤病人抑郁症的发生率无明显的性别差异( χ2 =2.77，P >0.05)。肺癌病人较其他种类的恶性肿瘤病人有更明显的抑郁倾向，差异有统计学意义( χ2 =15.28，P <0.05)。结论 恶性肿瘤病人较健康人群有明显的心理健康问题，且不同年龄、病种的病人之间存在显著差异，而与文化程度无关。在恶性肿瘤的宣教和治疗中不能忽视心理方面的指导和治疗。
