International Journal

IJGC is the scientific publication for topics relevant to detection, prevention, diagnosis,and treatment of gynecologic malignancies. IJGC emphasizes a multidisciplinary approach, and includes original research (clinical trials and translational or basic research), reviews, and opinion pieces.

Starting in 2019, new Editor-in-Chief, Pedro T. Ramirez, MD, and a stellar group of Associate Editors and international Editorial Board, are employing a new editorial strategy that will enhance the learning experience of readers.

We recognize the importance of assuring that our journal represents the work and research being conducted in all regions of the world, and at the same time, that it also highlights key issues critical to patients not only in developed countries but also in low-resource countries.
