Also called: Gynecologic Oncology
In the UAMS Health Gynecology Cancer Clinic, our doctors provide compassionate support and comprehensive treatment options for all types of gynecologic cancers. Among the types of cancer treated are cancers of the uterus (womb), cervix, ovaries, fallopian tubes, vagina and external genital area.
As the only teaching hospital in Arkansas, the UAMS Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute provides state-of-the-art technology and treatment options for you, including both inpatient and outpatient surgical procedures.
Among these options is the robotic da Vinci Surgical System, which makes it possible to prevent hysterectomies for some cervical cancer patients, preserving the woman’s ability to have children.
Our oncology nurses provide support and follow-up for patients receiving both chemotherapy and radiation treatments. UAMS also sponsors and participates in local and national clinical research trials, offering you new and innovative treatments not available anywhere else in the state.
