Gynecologic oncology focuses on cancers that develop in the female reproductive system.

Common gynecologic cancers include:

Treatment for gynecologic cancer depends on the cancer type, stage, location, pathology and the patient's overall health.

Depending on the individual case, treatment may include:

Cervical cancer develops in the cervix, which is the lower part of the uterus.

Treatment depends on the stage and characteristics of the cancer. It may involve surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy or other appropriate treatments.

Early diagnosis and appropriate staging are important for developing an individualized treatment plan.

Ovarian cancer begins in or around the ovaries and may sometimes be diagnosed at an advanced stage.

Treatment may involve cancer surgery followed by chemotherapy. Depending on the cancer type and molecular characteristics, targeted therapies or other treatments may also be considered.

The treatment approach is determined after reviewing imaging, pathology, staging and other relevant clinical information.

Endometrial cancer is a cancer that develops in the lining of the uterus. Uterine cancer can refer to cancers arising in different parts of the uterus.

Treatment depends on the specific cancer type and stage. Surgery is commonly an important part of treatment, while radiation therapy, chemotherapy, hormonal therapy or other systemic treatments may be recommended in selected cases.

A gynecologic oncology consultation may be recommended when a woman has a confirmed or suspected cancer involving the female reproductive system.

Consultation may also be considered when there is an abnormal biopsy, suspicious imaging finding, pelvic mass or other condition requiring specialist evaluation.

Early specialist assessment can help determine the appropriate diagnostic tests, staging and treatment options.

Yes. Surgery can be an important part of treatment for several gynecologic cancers.

Depending on the cancer type and stage, surgery may be used to remove the cancer, determine the extent of disease or help with accurate staging.

The surgical approach is selected according to the patient's diagnosis, tumor location, stage and overall health.

Yes. Chemotherapy and radiation therapy may be used individually or together with surgery depending on the type and stage of gynecologic cancer.

For some cervical cancers, chemotherapy and radiation may be used together as part of the treatment plan. For other cancers, chemotherapy may be recommended before or after surgery or for advanced disease.

Treatment is personalized based on the patient's clinical and pathological findings.

Immunotherapy uses medicines that help the immune system recognize and respond to cancer cells.

Immunotherapy may be appropriate for selected patients with certain gynecologic cancers. Treatment decisions can depend on the cancer type, stage, previous treatment and relevant biomarkers.

Diagnosis of gynecologic cancer may involve a combination of clinical examination, imaging and laboratory or pathology tests.

Depending on the suspected cancer, evaluation may include:
The exact tests required depend on the symptoms, suspected cancer and clinical findings.

Yes. Gynecologic cancer treatment is generally planned according to the individual patient's condition.

Factors such as cancer type, stage, pathology, molecular characteristics, previous treatment, overall health and treatment goals may be considered when developing a treatment plan.
