In 2008, the first candidate fulfilled the requirements for the College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of South Africa's subspecialty certificate in Gynaecological Oncology. As a subspecialty, gynaecological oncology adds significant value to the management and care of women who are diagnosed with gynaecological cancer, and enhances survival and treatment outcome. Therefore, there is no doubt that it is judicious to train gynaecological oncologists in South Africa.enThis work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution-Noncommercial-No Derivative Works 2.5 South Africa LicenseSubspecialty trainingGynaecological oncologyGenerative organs, Female -- Cancer -- Treatment -- South AfricaMeeting future requirements in gynaecological oncology subspecialty trainingArticle
