The article considers the modern methods of diagnosis and treatment of primary operable breast cancer depending on molecular biological profile of the tumor.

.

The article is devoted to the history of the St. Petersburg School of Oncogynecology from the moment of its creation to the present day. Brief biographies of the founders and scientific directions of the St. Petersburg School of Oncogynecology are presented.

The article covers different aspects of clinical manifestations, diagnosis, and treatment of vulvar, vaginal, and cervical sarcomas.

This article discusses the controversial issues of cytological screening for cervical cancer, including the use of liquid-based cytology and automated screening systems, high-risk human papillomavirus testing, and organizational issues of screening and staff training.

This article analyzes current problems associated with surgical and systemic treatment for hereditary breast and ovarian cancers (including those associated with BRCA1/2 gene mutations). We discuss the issues related to clinical course of multiple primary tumors and the...

The article considers the aspects of selection of post-neoadjuvant therapy for patients with residual breast cancer depending on biological subtype and molecular profile of the tumor. Analysis of morphological and molecular markers allowing to evaluate sensitivity of ma...

To diagnostics of the evaporation of tumor tissue by radiation of single-mode medical CO2 laser is proposed a laser Doppler diagnostic method based on autodyne detection (reception on a laser resonator) of backscattered radiation from the evaporation zone. Intraoperativ...

Endometrial cancer (EC) typically is treated surgically. Because of the adjuvant treatment implications, complete surgical staging including lymphadenectomy is recommended for high-risk ECs. Sentinel lymph node mapping has the potential to provide information about lymp...
