Prof. V.S.Gruzdev, as a representative of Russian oncology

In the development of the theory of tumors, in addition to pathologists and anatomists, representatives of other disciplines, including obstetrics and gynecology, took a significant part. However, it should be noted that even on a global scale, there are not so many builders of pure oncology among gynecologists and obstetricians. If we turn to foreign representatives of obstetric and gynecological science who contributed to the success of oncology, then here we will have to name with gratitude the names of Pfannenstіel, Sänger, Fraenkel, Kehrer, R. Meyer, Werth, Winter 'a and others. Among the Russian gynecologists we will name prof. K. F. Slavyansky, prof. D. D. Popova, prof. VN Orlov, KP Ulezko-Stroganova, in particular we should note here prof. VS Gruzdev, who paid such a great tribute to the issues of histopathogenesis, clinical picture and therapy of tumors of the female genital area.
