 abstract = {Objective: to investigate how the care for the elderly with cancer has been provided by a Brazilian family.
Method: We opted for the method of revision of literature in the bases of Lilacs, BDENF, BDTD and MEDLINE–Brazil
data, using family, elderly and cancer as descriptors, during the period of 2000 to 2009. Results: We analyzed
four studies that emphasized the aspects related to the main caretaker of elderly patients with cancer and not to
the family, and the need for partnerships with health’s professionals and family members. Conclusion: The
findings show that research in this area is not yet consolidated, and it is necessary to intensify efforts for the
development of evidences on the subject.},
