RT @SuzieSiegel: For the sake of women with gyn sarcoma, I wish we could get more cross-pollination between gyn oncologists and #sarcoma medical oncologists. They rarely attend each other's annual meetings. #gyncsm

T6. Black women are more likely to get uterine sarcomas, compared with other racial/ethnic groups. Sarcomas tend to be more aggressive than endometrial carcinoma. But advocates can't seem to get any help in outreach. #gyncsm

#gyncsm People need to include #RareCancers in their discussions of #inequity. In gyn #sarcoma, we have less money for research, fewer experts, and less patient support.
