Radiotherapy for the treatment of primary vaginal cancer.

Rajiv Samant1, Tiffany Tam, Simon Dahrouge, Choan E.   

Abstract

Disease control rates and toxicity were evaluated among 28 primary vaginal cancer patients treated with curative intent using radiotherapy. At 5 years, the majority (60%) of patients were disease-free and local control was 73% when a combination of external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy were used. Serious late toxicity was seen in 11% of patients.
