Abstract: Cancer is the main cause of death in China,and its pathogenesis is complex and has not been fully elucidated.Surgery is the main treatment of cancer,and the abnormal neuropsychiatric symptoms during the perioperative period of cancer patients often affect their prognosis.In recent years,numerous studies have found that gut microbiota play an important role in the occurrence and development of perioperative neuropsychiatric symptoms in cancer patients.This article aims to describe the research status of the relationship between intestinal flora and neuropsychiatric symptoms in cancer patients during perioperative period,in order to provide a new breakthrough for cancer prevention and treatment from the perspective of intestinal flora.

Key words: Cancer, Perioperative period, Gut microbiota, Neuropsychiatric symptoms
