| Description | Gynaecological malignancies represent a serious medical and societal problem due to their high prevalence and mortality. With an estimated annual incidence of more than 3.6 million cases and a mortality rate of more than 1.3 million cases, these tumours account for almost 40% of the total cancer incidence and more than 30% of the total cancer mortality in women worldwide. Breast cancer and uterine cancer are the two most common cancers affecting the female reproductive system worldwide and are strongly influenced by lifestyle. A team of leading Czech oncogynecologists, headed by Prof. Michal Zikán, M.D., Ph.D., has prepared a modern, clear and richly illustrated textbook Oncogynecology. The book is designed for everyday practice and for preparation for specialty examinations. Emphasis is placed on modern diagnosis and current therapy, including the latest targeted and biological treatments. The book will be an essential reference for both gynecologists and oncologists, and will also be useful for other medical specialties. |
