title: [Gynecologic oncology at the Royal Hospital for Women, Sidney. Report on a 10 month overseas stay].
abstract: Gynecologic oncology is centralized in Australia. In centers like the Royal Hospital for Women in Sydney, more than 300 patients/year with gynecologic malignancies are operated on. The establishment of gynecologic oncology as a special field is illustrated. In addition, the 3-year training program of gynecologic oncologists is reviewed. The international trend towards specialization is emphasized, and the advantages of centralization and additional training are pointed out. An adaptation of the Australian model for Austrian circumstances is proposed.
