CT scanning in intracavitary therapy: unexpected findings in "straightforward" insertions.

W P Makin1, R D Hunter.   

Abstract

Since 1980, pelvic CT scanning has been performed in 40% of patients who underwent afterloading intracavitary treatment for carcinoma of the cervix. The unexpected findings of uterine perforation are reported in 3% of these patients and the consequences are discussed.
