Case description

Status post the argon treatment, image in retrofletion. Radiation has been used in the treatment of cancers since the 1930's. It still remains the mainstay of treatment for cervical and vaginal carcinomas around the world. Its role in the treatment of other gynaecological cancers is less assured. It will probably continue to play a role in the management of some endometrial and vulvar carcinomas. Radiotherapy may be the only treatment or part of a multidisciplinary treatment plan, this reflects the modern approach to the management of gynaecological cancers.
