Abstract
European Cancer Organisation Essential Requirements for Quality Cancer Care (ERQCC) are written by experts representing all disciplines involved in cancer care in Europe. They give patients, health professionals, managers and policymakers a guide to essential care. Here, the essential requirements to treat ovarian cancer patients are described. Ovarian cancer patients continue to have low cure rates with wide variation in treatment and care in Europe and beyond. They require complex treatment that should be carried out in specialised ovarian/gynaecological cancer centres by professionals with the appropriate expertise interacting in a multidisciplinary team. Such centralisation is still not well established in many European countries. A patient-centred pathway from diagnosis through treatment to survivorship, managed in dedicated centres, is key to achieving optimal care and a successful clinical outcome.
期刊介绍:
Tumori Journal covers all aspects of cancer science and clinical practice with a strong focus on prevention, translational medicine and clinically relevant reports. We invite the publication of randomized trials and reports on large, consecutive patient series that investigate the real impact of new techniques, drugs and devices inday-to-day clinical practice.
