BONAVIA, Evangelina et al. Recommendations for the management of patients with gynecological cancer during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic. Medicina (B. Aires) [online]. 2021, vol.81, n.6, pp.1036-1044. ISSN 0025-7680.

COVID-19 coronavirus disease is an often-severe illness caused by the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The pandemic has demanded a great organization and redistribution of infrastructure and medical resources for the care of patients with cancer. The Gynecology service of the Oncology Hospital of the City of Buenos Aires is a monovalent center dependent on the City of Buenos Aires. It is part of the network of 33 public hospitals in the City of Buenos Aires and receives referrals from other hospitals in the network and from hospitals in the Province of Buenos Aires. As of March 20, 2020, when decree 260/20 came into force, which established social, preventive and compulsory isolation, a new modality was started for the care and benefits of our hospital. In our Service of the Hospital de Oncología de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires we have developed recommendations for the management of gynecological tumors during the COVID-19. The guide we developed is based on up-to-date data and available resources and provides suggestions and tools for decision-making in order to reduce the morbidity and mortality of patients with gynecological cancer during the Coronavirus pandemic (COVID-19).
