This post is an outline of the Module 17: Oncology. This is an important module to be covered as a few questions will be inevitably asked in the MRCOG part 2 exam. This module needs to be approached systematically.
- If you have a look at the details of module on ROCG website, you will know that the organs to be covered are: Cervix, Endometrium, Ovary, Vulva, Vagina and Fallopian Tubes
- You can make a big folder with the name “Oncology” with five subfolders namely Cervix, Endometrium, Ovary, Vulva and General (as outlined below in tables)
- For each organ, conditions are divided into three categories: Benign, Pre-Malignant and Malignant
- FIGO classification of all tumors must be on your last minute revision list, as we tend to forget it very often
- Treatment options at EACH stage as well as referral pathways
- Overall survival/ Recurrence rates
- Radiotherapy, Chemotherapy, Palliative care & End of life care
- Your notes are KEY in this module
- Make sure your notes cover all above mentioned points for each tumor
- Keep revising the numbers so that you can recall it easily in exam
- This module is well described in StratOG and a lot of material is available on RCOG website
- Following tables will help you organize the reading resources (please add more if I have missed any)
Please let me know in comments if this is helpful. Suggestions for improving future posts are welcome.
Thanks
