The avoidance of stigmatizing language is critical for equitable care of our older patients; the usage of stigmatizing language can create a greater divide between patients and physicians, as well as serve to transmit bias from one clinician to another.

    Ageism towards older adults with cancer may impact treatment decisions, healthcare interactions, and shape health/psychosocial outcomes. The purpose of this review is twofold: (1) To synthesize the literature on ageism towards older adults with cancer in oncology and (2) To identify interventions that address ageism in the healthcare context applicable to oncology.
