Abstract
Health-related stigma, including cancer-related stigma, can lead to discrimination that contributes to health inequities and poor health-related outcomes. This article provides a scholarly foundation to acknowledge and address health-related stigma in clinical oncology care. This comprehensive clinical literature review is based on peer-reviewed articles identified through targeted searches in CINAHL®, PubMed®, and Google Scholar™ databases. This review provides an updated scholarly foundation about stigma in clinical oncology practice. The review highlights stigma in clinical oncology research, identifies a framework for examining multilevel health-related stigma and discrimination, examines stigma measurement instruments, and reviews stigma reduction interventions.
