Objective: The goal of this study was to determine the impact of tumour board rounds (TBRs) on the additional management of patients with gynaecologic malignancy.
Methods: A retrospective chart review of 1604 patients discussed between January 2011 and December 2013 at gynaecologic TBRs was conducted to determine the frequency and type of diagnostic discrepancies found post-TBRs and their potential impact on additional patient management. A discrepancy was defined as major if it affected patient management by cancelling, initiating, or modifying treatment; otherwise, the discrepancy was minor.
