  Introduction and aim:Cancer is a health challenge for the entire human population. The number of oncologicalpatients is increasing every year. Health challenges include not only prevention, diagnosis,treatment, but also rehabilitation.

Through their analysis, it is possible to demonstrate the impact of rehabilitation andphysical activity on the functioning of patients during cancer treatment.Keywords: rehabilitation, exercise cancer, breast cancer, lung cancer, gastrointestinal cancerBrief description of state of the art:The negative effects of treatment can affect any system in the human body, so rehabilitationis necessary to assist the patient in the process of cancer therapy, which can have a significantpositive impact on treatment. In breast cancer rehabilitation, the main focus is on anti-edematreatment, in gastrointestinal cancers on ensuring an adequate respiratory track, while in lungcancers on restoring the patient's respiratory capacity as much as possible.Conclusion:Doctors and physiotherapists emphasize the positive consequence of movement on theprocess of cancer treatment. However, it should be remembered that the type of rehabilitationshould be selected individually for each patient, given the needs, limitations and goals ofrehabilitation. An important aspect of conducting rehabilitation is to integrate it with thetreatment process and the work of the multispecialty team.
