Endometrial Cancer Trial Results
Internal Radiation Effectively Reduces Local Recurrence of Some Endometrial Cancers
(Posted: 03/31/2010) - Vaginal brachytherapy was as effective as external-beam radiation therapy at reducing the rate of cancer recurrence in the vagina and had fewer side effects for women with high-intermediate risk endometrial cancer, according to a study published March 6, 2010, in the The Lancet.
Surgery Alone May Be Best for Early Endometrial Cancer
