RANGO: establishing a rare gynecological tumor database to improve future care

A large proportion of gynecological tumors are classed as rare tumors because of their variable morphologies and pathologies. We interviewed Marcia Hall, MBBS, PhD, FRCP, of the East and North Hertfordshire NHS Trust, Hertfordshire, UK, about these rare tumors at the UK Oncology Forum (OF) 2018, held in Liverpool, UK. She describes her ongoing project, RANGO, which aims to set up an anonymous database detailing different rare gynecological tumors and the way that they were treated, as well as a tissue bank that will enable future researchers to access a wide variety of rare tumor types.
