In light of September's 'International Gynecological Cancer Awareness Month', ISUOG has compiled a collection of resources from our community's expert clinicians including, UOG Journal articles, lectures and learning materials.
According to the World Health Organization’s International Agency for Research on Cancer, gynecologic cancers account for 19% of the 5.1 million estimated new cancer cases diagnosed each year.
Gynecologic cancer is any cancer that starts in a woman’s reproductive organs. There are five main types of gynecologic cancer: cervical, ovarian, uterine, vaginal, and vulvar, with uterine and ovarian being the most common. Ovarian cancer is the fifth-leading cause of cancer-related death among women and often goes undetected until it has spread to the pelvis and abdomen.
Read, watch and learn from our community's expert clinicians on gynecological cancers.
