Despite the successes of modern medicine, lung cancer mortality continues to be one of the top causes of death among malignant tumors. At the same time, insufficient attention is paid to the problems of patient rehabilitation. The study's purpose is to develop the most promising tasks for the physical rehabilitation of patients with lung cancer based on the analysis of world experience. The literature sources were analysed for the period 2000-2024 in scientometric databases: Scopus, Google Scholar, Web of Science, PubMed, Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials. Recent statistics show that, on average, 76.1% of patients with lung cancer die within the first year after diagnosis. Insufficient attention is paid to the problems of patient rehabilitation in both the practical and scientific spheres, in particular, there are no common views on the duration, dosage and content of programs. However, according to a few researchers, the use of rehabilitation programs in the preoperative, acute, post-acute and long-term rehabilitation periods reduces the incidence of postoperative complications, the length of hospital stay, improves ventilatory function, exercise tolerance, psychological state and, as a result, quality of life. Therapeutic exercise is a simple, effective, affordable and safe tool for patients with lung cancer. There is no convincing evidence to increase the life expectancy of patients with lung cancer with the use of therapeutic exercises, and there are no standardized approaches to the content of rehabilitation programs for patients with lung cancer. The use of therapeutic exercises in different periods of rehabilitation reduces the manifestations of the disease, improves physical performance, pulmonary function, and maximum oxygen consumption, reduces the duration of the inpatient period, enhances the ability to perform daily activities and, most importantly, improves the quality of life of patients. Subjective barriers hurt the implementation of physiotherapy in the clinical environment.
