Summary

Introduction

In Russia about 30 000 cases of oncological diseases in young women are diagnosed. В связи с этим обновленные международные рекомендации, основанные на данных об отдаленных эффектах гонадотоксичности химио- или лучевой терапии, указывают на преимущество превентивного подхода, включающего консультацию пациента у репродуктолога перед началом лечения и совместный с онкологом выбор метода для отдаленного сохранения репродуктивного резерва (органосохраняющая операция с дальнейшим применением методик вспомогательных репродуктивных технологий (ВРТ) или криоконсервация эмбрионов, ооцитов, спермы) [8]. Стандартом лечения рака тела матки I стадии, принятым Международной федерацией акушеров и гинекологов, является простая или расширенная гистерэктомия, при инвазии опухоли на глубину >50 % толщины миометрия также требуется лучевая терапия [11].
