Critical to raise awareness this June Re the 4th most common cancer in women. 38,300 cases in U.S. when I finished training in 2001. 66,200 projected this year. And likely to surpass ovarian cancer deaths in 2024. prnewswire.com/news-releases/…

Continued progress in the “de-radicalization” of vulvar and cervical cancer surgical extirpation. Congrats to the investigators. Meets the “moves the needle” criterion.

And the sun sets on yet another remarkable year for our patients- with incorporation of immunotherapy in endometrial cancer and increased utilization of ADCs in cervical cancer and ovarian cancer. Happy New Year and cheers to further progress in 2024!
