[Gynecologic oncology--present trends]

The incidence of all malignant tumours of the female reproductive organs in our country is on average by 40% higher than the worldwide incidence and with the exception of carcinoma of the uterine cervix it is still slowly rising. Gynaecological oncology emphasizes: prevention with accurate classification of premalignant changes to ensure adequate treatment; radical surgery primarily in invasive forms as well as with regard to staging as a prerequisite for indication of adjuvant treatment; interdisciplinary team cooperation which indicates without time losses all therapeutic steps, incl. inoperable tumours, and ensures permanent follow-up.
