Gynecological oncology is a specialized field of medicine, which is concerned with the study, diagnosis and management of cancers of the female reproductive system. Some gynecological cancers are ovarian cancer, uterine cancer, cervical cancer, vaginal cancer and vulvar cancer. Gynecologic ultrasonography, gynoroentgenology and speculoscopy are certain imaging techniques used for detecting gynecological malignancies. Many gynecological malignancies are treated surgically, such as cervical, uterine, ovarian or endometrium tumors and uterine fibroids. Oophorectomy or the surgical removal of the ovaries is frequently combined with hysterectomy to decrease the risk of ovarian cancer or as a therapeutic strategy to treat cancer. In gynecological oncology, the surgical removal of the uterine cervix or cervicectomy is performed as a surgical alternative to radical hysterectomy to treat younger women with cervical cancer. To manage necrosis of the clitoris or remove malignancy of the clitoris, a clitoridectomy is performed. This book is a valuable compilation of topics, ranging from the basic to the most complex advancements in gynecological oncology. It presents researches and studies performed by experts across the globe. Those with an interest in gynecological cancers would find this book helpful.
