Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The prevalence of gynecological cancers has increased in the past 10 years. Their management, both surgical and medical, has undergone various improvements and modifications which have positively influenced the oncological outcomes of patients. Novel approaches in such treatment include the implementation of less radical surgeries in cervical cancer patients, avoiding main urologic complications; the use of sentinel node biopsy in the assessment of nodal disease among gynecological cancers; the implementation of immunologic agents in the adjuvant treatment of patients; and the reclassification of tumors according to molecular profiles as a main factor in postoperative management.
The aim of this Special Issue is to disseminate the last evidence regarding the management of gynecological cancers, which will contribute to increasing the survival of the patients or, at least, to decreasing the morbidity of treatments.
