ABSTRACT
It was found that oncological patients are4 to 8 times more likely of developing severe forms of COVID-19 infection than other patients, so mortality is higher in patients with gyneco-logical cancer. Due to this pandemic, reported delays in diagnosis and treatment of genital cancer and changes in disease management, may influence the natural history of neoplasm. This fact adds more stress and fear for patients with neoplasms. Adequate protective measures are essen-tial for SARS CoV2 infection avoidance and lead to changes in healthcare professionals clinical practice. Prioritization is important, but direct personal interactions should be limited. However, gynecological tumors surgery, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy should continue as high priority practices, without essential modification. The conclusion is that COVID-19 pandemic has affect-ed many guides for management of diseases, especially oncological. Adaptations in clinical prac-tice may avoid viral infection and reduce mortality and severe complications. Copyright © 2021 Dragos-Eugen Georgescu et al., published by Sciendo.
