Gynecologic cancer in the elderly

W Termrungruanglert et al. Clin Geriatr Med. 1997 May.

Ovarian and endometrial cancers are diseases of the aging process. The complications of treatment are those of comorbid illness and the extent of cancer rather than of advanced age. Elderly patients are diagnosed initially with more advanced disease.
