Abstract:
The article presents the analysis of present-day medical care for patients with urogenital cancer (UGC) in the Russian Federation (RF). In 2004 cancer treatment service in the RF has 8 Research Cancer and Radiological Institutes, 110 inpatient and 7 outpatient cancer clinics. According to the statistics for 1998, UGC patients are treated in 32 specialized departments in 24 regions. The rest regions provide such care in urological departments and clinics. In view of the importance of oncourology nowadays, we propose to set up an oncourological section at All-Russia Urology Society as a center of integration of efforts of specialists in oncourology.
