Plenum of the Interdepartmental Scientific Council on Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences M3 RF "Oncological screening, carcinogenesis and early stages of cancer in the practice of a gynecologist"

October 31 - November 1, 2000 in Izhevsk the Plenum of the Interdepartmental Scientific Council on Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Russian Academy of Medical Sciences M3 of the Russian Federation was held. Despite the allocation of two different specialties in clinical medicine - gynecology and gynecological oncology, the problems of risk and early diagnosis of gynecological cancer occupy a prominent place in the activities of an obstetrician-gynecologist. Diseases of the breast are of no less importance for clinical practice. The topic of this Plenum is a logical continuation of previous discussions on topical issues of modern gynecology - "Ways of development of modern gynecology" and "Ovarian tumors", held within the framework of the Ministry of Taxes and Communications.
