Resumen

Introduction: The increase in the incidence of chronicnoncommunicable diseases has been highlighted in termsof worldwide mortality rates. Among these diseases, pan-creatic cancer stands out, which is characterized by a ten-dency towards the evolution of metastasis and low survival.Weight loss is associated with increased basal energy ex-penditure, decreased energy consumption and malabsorp-tion of nutrients. Case report: Oncological therapies can affect to quality oflife and nutritional status of individuals, due to the toxic andimmunosuppressive effects. For this reason, the use of alter-native and complementary therapies, such as the use ofpropolis, can help to improve the quality of treatment, by de-creasing the proliferation of neoplastic cells and the toxic ef-fects of chemotherapy, due to the epigenetic, antitumor, apoptotic characteristics, antioxidants and immunomodulatory. Thiscase report addresses the clinical and nutritional monitoring ofan elderly male patient, with pancreatic cancer undergoingchemotherapy, under nutritional advice associated with thesupplementation of hydroalcoholic extract of green propolis. Conclusion: There was an improvement in the quality oflife and an increase in the patient’s survival rate from 12 months to three years, in addition to stabilization of tu-mor progression.
