The subjects were selected using the convenience sampling technique. Data collection instruments included a demographic questionnaire and the MacNew quality of life questionnaire. Data was collected on the day before surgery and evaluated with mean, percentage, and frequency in SPSS 22. Results: Findings showed that the overall QOL score was 87.3 ± 0.76. The score mean in the emotional dimension, physical dimension, and social dimension were respectively; 4.01 ± 0.72, 3.25 ± 0.78, and 3.45 ± 0.80.
