UPHS - Penn Women Connect Gynecologic Cancer Newsletter
Using Robotic Surgery to Treat Cancer: Penn Expands Robotic Gynecologic Surgery Program New advances in robotic-assisted surgery are shortening the recovery time, reducing pain and letting women get back to their lives in record time. Penn’s robotic gynecologic surgery program continues to grow and is now available at all three UPHS hospitals. Gyn Onc Services Move to Perelman Center for Advanced Medicine Opening this summer, the Perelman Center is a state-of-the-art, 360,000+ square foot outpatient facility designed to create an ideal environment for patient-focused care and collaboration among health care professionals. The Abramson Cancer Center of the University of Pennsylvania will be one of the first tenants to move into the Perelman Center this summer. OncoLife Survivorship Care Plan Oncolink® has created an individualizedplan of care based on the Institute of Medicine recommendations for cancer survivors. This free program provides cancer survivors with information regarding the health risks they face as a result of cancer therapies. A Vaccine to Attack Ovarian Cancer Penn researchers use patient’s own tumor tissue and create an immunotherapy vaccine to attack ovarian cancer. Share Your Story Frequently, people learn from the life experiences of their friends, peers, even strangers. When faced with a diagnosis of cancer, a patient can take a tremendous amount of comfort in knowing they are not alone. It helps to find that others have managed their cancer and want to offer support – that is why we want to hear from you. Clinical Trials: Helping to Advance Cancer Care Patients with cancer are living longer and have a better quality of life than ever before. This is due in part to our ability to better diagnose and treat cancer. None of the recent advances in cancer care would have been possible without clinical trials.
