During the COVID-19 pandemic, pressures on clinical services required adaptation to how care was prioritised and delivered for women with gynecological cancer. This document discusses potential 'salvage' measures when treatment has deviated from the usual standard of care. The British Gynaecological Cancer Society convened a multidisciplinary working group to develop recommendations for the onward management and follow-up of women with gynecological cancer who have been impacted by a change in treatment during the pandemic. These recommendations are presented for each tumor type and for healthcare systems, and the impact on gynecological services are discussed. It will be important that patient concerns about the impact of COVID-19 on their cancer pathway are acknowledged and addressed for their ongoing care.
在 COVID-19 大流行期间，临床服务的压力要求对妇科癌症患者的护理优先级和提供方式进行调整。本文讨论了在治疗偏离常规护理标准时可能采取的“挽救”措施。英国妇科癌症学会召集了一个多学科工作组，为受大流行期间治疗变化影响的妇科癌症患者的后续管理和随访制定建议。这些建议按肿瘤类型和医疗保健系统提出，并讨论了对妇科服务的影响。重要的是，要承认和解决患者对 COVID-19 对其癌症治疗路径影响的担忧，以确保他们得到持续的护理。
