Abstract
The hospital structure has become a place to die. This leads to the emergence of palliative care whose goal is the humanization of terminal cancer. It is about an overall-care-giving including a psychological dimension. This contribution raises the problem of a contemporary and outstanding conception of the psychological undertaking within the context of the terminal cancer regarding the metapsychological problem which death represents. The teaching of psychoanalysis finds its place if we consider death as “plain reality” that is treated from where subconscious lies and if we draw conclusions from it for clinical practice.
