The European Society of Gynaecological Oncology (ESGO) has awarded its certification for endometrial cancer surgery to the University Gynecology Department, led by Prof. Frédéric Kridelka (CHU de Liège) and Prof. Frédéric Chantraine (Citadelle). This certification confirms adherence to ESGO's high standards for surgical expertise, activity volumes, compliance with European recommendations, and care pathway organization.
Achieving this European label acknowledges the daily efforts of healthcare professionals in providing patients with specialized, rigorous, and personalized care. It also highlights the fruitful collaboration between the teams at Citadelle and CHU de Liège, whose complementary skills and experiences enrich this joint university department.
“"This certification rewards the work of our teams across both sites. Their collaboration and complementary expertise allow us to mutually strengthen, with one priority: to offer each patient the best possible care."
Endometrial cancer, the most common gynecological cancer in Western countries, develops in the uterine lining. Its management requires precise evaluation of each situation. While surgery is the standard treatment in most cases, therapeutic decisions are based on a multidisciplinary approach involving gynecologists, surgeons, oncologists, and paramedical professionals. The organization of care pathways and personalized patient support are essential components of high-quality management.
