- The European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) and partners are committed to improving the training for gynecologic oncology fellows. The aim of this survey was to assess the type and level of training in cervical cancer surgery and to investigate whether the Laparoscopic Approach to Cervical Cancer (LACC) trial results impacted training in radical surgery for gynecologic oncology fellows.MethodsIn June 2020, a 47-question electronic survey was shared with European Network of Young Gynaecologic Oncologists (ENYGO) members. Specialist fellows in obstetrics and gynecology, and gynecologic oncology, from high- and low-volume centers, who started training between January 1, 2017 and January 1, 2020 or started before January 1, 2017 but finished their training at least 6 months after the LACC trial publication (October 2018), were included.Results81 of 125 (64.8%) respondents were included. The median time from the start of the fellowship to completion of the survey was 28 months (range 6–48). 56 (69.1%) respondents were still fellows-in-training. 6 of 56 (10.7%) and 14 of 25 (56.0%) respondents who were still in training and completed the fellowship, respectively, performed ≥10 radical hysterectomies during their training. Fellows trained in an ESGO accredited center had a higher chance to perform sentinel lymph node biopsy (60.4% vs 30.3%; p=0.027). There was no difference in the mean number of radical hysterectomies performed by fellows during fellowship before and after the LACC trial publication (8±12.0 vs 7±8.4, respectively; p=0.46). A significant reduction in number of minimally invasive radical hysterectomies was noted when comparing the period before and after the LACC trial (38.5% vs 13.8%, respectively; p<0.001).ConclusionExposure to radical surgery for cervical cancer among gynecologic oncology fellows is low. Centralization of cervical cancer cases to high-volume centers may provide an increase in fellows’ exposure to radical procedures. The LACC trial publication was associated with a decrease in minimally invasive radical hysterectomies performed by fellows.

- Introduction/Background Both the location of primary disease and treatment side effects may have an impact on sexual function in the population of oncogynaecological patients. Sexual health is a major compound of the quality of life, yet due to its intimate nature tends to be underserved in the routine medical care. The aim of the study was to examine prevalence, strategies, barriers and ideas for improvement of sexual counselling among specialists managing patients with gynaecological malignancies.Methodology A self-prepared questionnaire concerning sexual counselling in gynaecological oncology practice (attitudes, behaviours, confronted difficulties and ideas for possible systemic improvements) was used in this cross-sectional study. Paper and online versions were distributed among participants of ESGO-ENYGO-ESO Masterclass. Link to the questionnaire was also shared among ENYGO members via the mailing system, ESGO social media channels, and ENYGO National Representatives. Ongoing data collection was initiated in June 2019. A total number of 99 answers from 39 countries were obtained.Results Collecting information concerning sexual function of the majority of managed patients was reported by 36% of respondents, whereas 20% discuss the topic rarely or never. 74% stated that the subject is important or very important. However, 70% are asked by less than half of managed patients about the impact of proposed therapies on sexual function.Most frequently mentioned barriers included time deficiency (74%), insufficient specialist knowledge (53%), patient's embarrassment (46%), and lack of educational materials for patients (35%). According to respondents more widespread sexual counselling in oncological care could be achieved by preparation of educational materials for patients (80%) and healthcare providers (74%) as well as organization of workshops for professionals (64%) and patients (50%).Conclusion The patients' needs regarding sexual counselling could be addressed better. Providing access to specialist educational programmes for both patients and healthcare providers may serve as adequate method for achieving this goal.

- Gender-related differences in career development are well known issues in various professions. An international survey on gender-related differences was performed among young gynecologic oncology surgeons in Europe to identify potential gender inequalities in career development.Material and methodsA survey on demographics, clinical and academic working environment, family/parenting, career development, salary and leadership was sent to all members of the European Network of Young Gynecologic Oncologists (ENYGO), which is a network within the European Society of Gynecologic Oncology (ESGO). Gynecologic oncology surgeons and obstetricians/gynecologists who actively work in this field in Europe were included in the study.ResultsResponses were analyzed from 192 gynecologic oncology surgeons of whom 65.1% (125/192) were female (median age 37, IQR: 34 - 42) and 34.9% (67/192) were male (median age 38, IQR: 36 - 41). Male reported to perform a median of 15 and female a median of 10 operations per month (p = .007). Among female, 24.8% had a leadership position vs. 44.8% among male, crude OR = 2.46, 95% CI 1.31-4.62, p<.01. When stratifying for age under 41 and having children, 36.7% of male and 5.6% of female had a leadership position, adjusted OR 10.8, 95% CI 3.28-35.64, p<.001. A significantly higher proportion of female compared to male believed they earned less than their gender counterparts at the same clinical position and with same qualifications (30.4% vs. 2.5%, p<.001). There was not a statistically significant gender difference in the academic qualification PhD degree or professorship (p = .92 and p = .64, respectively). In the previous year, male published more peer-reviewed articles than female (median 3 vs. median 2; p = .017).ConclusionThis first comprehensive survey on gender-differences in gynecologic oncology in Europe revealed that there are gender gaps concerning several aspects during the critical time of career development in the young generation of gynecologic oncology surgeons. These gender gaps are particularly reflected by a lower rate of female leadership positions. ENYGO and ESGO are dedicated to work on solution to overcome the identified obstacles and to support closing gender gaps.
