Abstract (English): Breast cancer is the most prevalent type of cancer among women and has considerable emotional impacts following diagnosis. This study therefore aimed to examine the emotional effects associated with the disease and to highlight the importance of nursing in providing psychosocial support. It is an integrative literature review conducted using national and international databases, including articles published between 2020 and 2025. The findings revealed that emotions such as fear, anxiety, and sadness are common and may interfere with treatment adherence. Nursing interventions, including receptiveness, active listening, and supportive strategies, help to alleviate suffering and promote well-being, fostering emotional balance and a sense of calm in the face of diagnosis. The study concludes that nurses play a crucial role by combining technical care with emotional support, thereby enhancing patients' confidence and hope. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
Abstract (Portuguese): O câncer de mama é uma forma de câncer mais prevalente entre as mulheres e causa impactos emocionais consideráveis após o diagnóstico. Sendo assim, este estudo teve como finalidade entender os efeitos emocionais gerados pela doença e ressaltar a relevância da enfermagem no suporte psicossocial. Refere-se a uma revisão abrangente da literatura, realizada em fontes nacionais e internacionais, englobando artigos publicados de 2020 a 2025. Os achados indicaram que emoções como medo, ansiedade e tristeza são comuns e podem afetar a aderência ao tratamento. A enfermagem, por meio da receptividade, escuta ativa e métodos de apoio, ajuda a diminuir o sofrimento e a melhorar o bem-estar, gerando equilíbrio e tranquilidade diante do diagnóstico. A conclusão aponta que o enfermeiro desempenha uma função essencial ao unir cuidados técnicos e suporte emocional, estimulando confiança e esperança nas pacientes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
