Abstract
External beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy are major treatments in the management of cervical cancer. For early-stage tumours with local risk factors, brachytherapy is a preoperative option. Postoperative radiotherapy is indicated according to histopathological criteria. For advanced local tumours, chemoradiation is the standard treatment, followed by brachytherapy boost, which is not optional. We present the update of the recommendations of the French Society of Oncological Radiotherapy on the indications and techniques for external beam radiotherapy and brachytherapy for cervical cancer.Entities:
