This is a novel text that highlights the controversial areas in the management of gynecological cancers. None of the topics in this book have definitive answers; they represent the everyday decision-making facing gynecologists, oncologists, radiologists, pathologists and other health professionals treating women with these conditions. This book is not to be used as a traditional textbook; it is a text that specialists and trainees will use to help them weigh up the arguments that exist in a variety of areas in the treatment of gynecological cancers. Each chapter will have two or more authors, selected either for their opposing views or for their ability to provide an opposite view or opinion to the other. The content will be evidence-based, illustrating contrasting evidence and scientific opinion in the literature. Each chapter will close on a summary indicating the direction of research needed to address the issues being discussed.

Today, multidisciplinary approaches to treatment are at the heart of cancer care. They offer improved clinical outcomes, new possibilities in patient quality of life, and enable the development of true innovation in individualized treatment. To accurately reflect this modern day approach to cancer care, the content of the 6th edition of Principles and Practice of Gynecologic Oncology was written entirely by surgeons, medical oncologists, radiation oncologists, and pathologists. New to the editorial team, Dr. Andrew Berchuck has made significant contributions to the understanding of the molecular pathogenesis of ovarian and endometrial cancer in the book’s content. Every chapter of this book has been either completely rewritten or extensively updated to ensure that everyone involved in treating women with gynecologic cancer will have the most comprehensive and up-to-date information on the subject.

As cancer survival rates continue to improve, the number of patients living with cancer or after successful cancer treatment is increasing. Gynaecological cancers are potentially curable if caught in their early stages, and, therefore, quality of life after treatment is important. This is the first textbook to consider the prevention, diagnosis and management of psychological and physical treatment-induced morbidity in patients with gynaecological cancers. It is essential reading for all sub-specialty trainees in gynaecological oncology, as well as established consultants. It will appeal to consultants and trainees in all contributing specialties, including reproductive medicine, urology and uro-gynaecology, gastroenterology, colorectal surgery and psychology, as well as specialists in lymphoedema treatment.
