ESMO Gynae 2025

Christina Fotopoulou, MD, PhD, Imperial College London, London, UK, emphasizes the importance of accessibility as a major barrier in providing adequate surgical care for advanced ovarian cancer. Centralized care, specialized teams, adequate infrastructure and resources are all needed to provide equitable care. While some countries are establishing centralized care, the challenge persists, particularly in low-resource countries, which highlights the need for guidelines to address these disparities. This interview took place at 2025 European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Gynaecological Cancers Congress in Vienna, Austria.
