"Dr. Lentz is caring and attentive to my mom. He was professional and extremely knowledgeable, applying that knowledge to best provide the treatment she needed. It was pre cancerous. Surgery was needed before her situation turned to cancer. She healed nicely and it gave her several more years with me. I was very impressed with his methodical approach to her needs. All visits with him were very efficient. He is an asset to his clinic as well as his patients. I highly recommend him!!! ~ Judy Church ~ "

What is Gynecologic Oncology?

Gynecologic oncology is a medical specialty that is dedicated to treating cancers of the female reproductive system, such as endometrial, ovarian, cervical, and vulvar cancers. Gynecologic oncologists are surgeons who specialize in obstetric and gynecologic care and complete training in surgery, chemotherapy, radiation, and other critical treatments for gynecologic cancer.

Some gynecologic cancers can be detected through routine gynecologic screenings such as pelvic exams and pap smears, where cervix cells are collected and studied by pathologists for a possible diagnosis. Other cancers may be diagnosed through radiological imaging, such as intravenous pyelogram (IVP), pelvic X-rays with contrast dye, CAT scans, or ultrasounds. Gynecologic oncologists may request patients' complete blood tests or the CA 125 assay test, which measures cancer proteins in the blood. Gynecologic oncologists also can collect biopsies (tissue samples) by removing small sections of the reproductive organs for examination. Procedures to treat gynecologic cancers may include:

Minimally invasive surgery, such as laparoscopy and surgery performed by robotic arm
Radical vaginal trachelectomy, removal of the cervix and surrounding tissue
Hysterectomy, surgical removal of the uterus and possibly other sections of reproductive organs
Unilateral and bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy, surgeries to remove one or both ovaries and fallopian tubes
Laser surgery, which uses laser beams which cut through tissue to remove lesions and tumors

Gynecologic oncologists can also prescribe fertility-preserving surgeries for patients with cancer who wish to have children after treatment. Gynecologic oncologists can collaborate with oncologists, gynecologic pathologists, women's health specialists, urogynecologists, and gynecologic surgeons.
