Introduction: Integrative oncology is a recent and promising field, which aims a patient-centered comprehensive care, within an evidence-based approach. Objective: To investigate the scientific knowledge produced on integrative oncology in hospital care. Method: Integrative review with searches in PubMed, LILACS, SciELO and MOSAICO databases carried out from February to March 2022. Based in the eligibility criteria (studies related to the subject published from 2000 to 2022, available in full by public access, in English, Portuguese and Spanish) seven articles were selected and analyzed according to the thematic modality. Results: The eligible articles were published between 2018 and 2021, with emphasis on European production, which corresponds to four (57.14%) articles. The content of the studies was organized in two themes, namely: the implementation of integrative oncology care and the equitable access to integrative oncology and other challenges. It has been observed that integrative oncology has been practiced in different scenarios, with variable actions taken, and its central challenge is to expand the user access, through the development of evidence-based guidelines and the implementation of funding and professional qualification policies. Conclusion: The scientific knowledge produced indicates that the implementation of integrative oncology care in hospital attention is still limited, with challenges related to equitable access, funding, management and qualification of health professionals.
