Outcomes in gynecological cancers are heavily stage-dependent, ranging from 5-year survival 95% in early stage to less than 15% in advanced stages. Early diagnosis and timely treatment are therefore of the utmost importance, but they should be balanced, considering the availability of local expertise and resources and the local pandemic status. This article outlines the management guidelines for the care of women with gynecological malignancies during the COVID-19 pandemic. }, volume = 5, journal = {Indian Journal of Cardiovascular Disease in Women WINCARS}, issn = {2455-7854}, url = {https://doi.org/10.1055/s-0040-1716924}, doi = {10.1055/s-0040-1716924} }
