Abstract
Gynecologic malignancies remain an important health concern for women. The primary care practitioner plays a valuable role in performing regular Pap smears and pelvic examinations. Although routine screening for asymptomatic women for ovarian and endometrial cancer cannot be recommended at this time, vaginal ultrasound is a valuable tool for the evaluation of postmenopausal bleeding and ovarian masses.
