Gynecologic Cancer Treatment Tailored to You

Treatment options for gynecologic cancers include surgery, radiation therapy, chemotherapy, targeted therapy, hormone therapy, and immunotherapy. The recommended set of treatments will depend on the specific type of gynecologic cancer you are diagnosed with, its stage, and your personal preferences – such as whether you may want to have children after treatment.

Gynecologic Cancer Surgery

Surgery is part of most patients’ treatment plans for gynecologic cancer. Whenever possible, this is done using minimally invasive procedures, such as laparoscopic surgery or the da Vinci® robotic system. Our gynecologic cancer surgeons will meet to discuss your surgical options and what to expect after surgery.
