Fellowship In Medical Oncology

Course Overview

Gynaecologic cancers—including ovarian, uterine (endometrial), cervical, vulvar and vaginal malignancies—pose unique challenges in diagnosis, surgical management, and long-term care. Advances in minimally-invasive surgery, robotics, targeted therapy, and personalized medicine mean that specialists must now balance survival, fertility preservation, function, and quality of life.

The Fellowship in Gynaecology Oncology at HCG is designed for gynecologists and oncologists who aspire to master the full spectrum of gynaecologic cancer care: from complex oncologic surgeries to systemic therapies, minimally-invasive techniques and survivorship management. Fellows train in high-volume multidisciplinary settings under experienced faculty, gaining hands-on exposure to advanced surgical techniques (including laparoscopic and robotic), medical oncology, radiation oncology, pathology and molecular diagnostics.

Within HCG’s comprehensive cancer care environment, this fellowship equips participants to act as leaders in gynaecologic cancer management, research, and patient-centred care.

Why This Fellowship Matters

  • Rising Burden: Gynaecologic cancers remain among the leading causes of morbidity and mortality in women worldwide.
  • Skill Gap: Many centres lack physicians trained in both complex surgical oncology and the integrative care required for these patients.
  • Holistic Care Needs: Management of gynaecologic cancers must now include fertility preservation, functional outcomes and survivorship – not just tumor removal.
  • HCG Advantage: With multidisciplinary tumour boards, high case-volumes, minimally invasive and robotic platforms, and strong academic infrastructure, HCG offers an ideal ecosystem for advanced learning.

Fellowship Highlights

  • Broad Surgical Exposure: Management of early-stage through advanced gynaecologic cancers, including radical resections, fertility-preserving surgery, robotic/laparoscopic techniques.
  • Systemic & Radiation Therapy Integration: Hands-on exposure to chemotherapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy and stereotactic/radiation oncology as part of comprehensive care.
  • Minimally-Invasive & Robotic Training: Experience in laparoscopic and robotic-assisted procedures specific to gynaecologic oncology.
  • Multidisciplinary Collaboration: Work closely with pathology, radiology, radiation oncology, medical oncology, fertility specialists and survivorship care teams.
  • Research & Academic Growth: Opportunities to engage in clinical trials, publish in peer-reviewed journals, present at national/international conferences.
  • Career Development: Pathway to become a consultant gynaecologic oncologist, academic faculty member or researcher in India or globally.

Learning Objectives

By the end of the Fellowship in Bone Marrow Transplant & Leukemia, fellows will be able to:

  • Diagnose and stage gynaecologic malignancies using current international guidelines.
  • Plan and execute complex surgical procedures (radical, fertility-preserving, minimally invasive) with oncologic and functional outcomes.
  • Administer systemic therapies (chemotherapy, targeted, immunotherapy) and integrate with surgical/radiation modalities.
  • Collaborate effectively in tumour boards and multidisciplinary teams to deliver personalised care.
  • Provide holistic survivorship care including fertility preservation, rehabilitation and quality-of-life management.
  • Lead or contribute to clinical research in gynaecologic oncology and adopt evidence-based practices.

Eligibility:

MS / DNB (Obstetrics & Gynaecology) or equivalent surgical qualification.

Candidates should have strong surgical skills and interest in oncologic care.

FAQs:

Candidates with MS or DNB in Obstetrics & Gynaecology (or equivalent) are eligible. Prior experience in oncology or advanced gynae-surgery is beneficial but not mandatory.

You will gain expertise in surgical management of gynaecologic cancers (open, laparoscopic, robotic), systemic therapies, radiation integration, multidisciplinary care and survivorship.

Typically the fellowship is 12–24 months, depending on clinical exposure, institutional structure and case volume.

Yes — the program emphasises advanced surgical techniques including laparoscopic and robotic procedures, under mentorship.

Graduates can work as consultant gynaecologic oncologists, lead surgical oncology units, pursue academic or research careers, or join national and international cancer centres.
