Spotlight on … gynaecological cancer

Abstract

I looked a bit shocked when the TOG Managing Editor informed me that it was 5 years since my last ‘Spotlight on . . . gynaecological cancer’ (TOG 2017;19:107). She was too kind to mention thiswas related tomyadvancing years, tenuous grip on time and blas e attitude to deadlines (although she will probably cut this in the edit [note fromManaging Editor –we’ve left this in!]). Looking back, it has been an eventful 5 years! While the British Gynaecological Cancer Society (BGCS) has been busy drafting guidelines for management of patients affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, our community has also been busy updating TOG on significant advances in the understanding and treatment of gynaecological cancers. Thank you to the excellent author teams for sharing their knowledge and insights, exploring topics I hope will be relevant to both gynaecological oncologists and those with other specialist interests.
