Abstract: |
The book describes the various recommendations to be followed during preventive gynecological examinations. As an introduction, the physiology of the woman's reproductive system — reproductive cycle and hormonal effects — is described in the initial chapters. Particular emphasis is placed on the logic of preventive control. In other words, it analyzes why the specific preventive check should be carried out, when it should be started, when it should be repeated, and when it should be stopped. Comparative data from various recommendations are presented, and the pros and cons of each recommendation are analyzed. Screening tests for breast cancer and possible screening tests for ovarian and endometrial cancer are described. Reference is also made to common gynecological conditions with particular emphasis on modern diagnosis as well as therapeutic practices. Emphasis is placed on the conditions and therapeutic practices related to local and distant metastasis of cancers of the female genital tract and breast. Finally, the book describes the most common cancers of the female genital tract and breast, with particular emphasis on modern diagnostic, treatment, and follow-up techniques. Cancers of the vulva, vagina, cervix, body of the uterus, fallopian tubes, ovaries, and breast are described in different chapters and sub-chapters.
