The observational study we carried out examines 13 patients affected by K endometrium and subjected to endocavitary HDR treatment after exeretic and OT treatment. Patients underwent HDR; High dose rate brachytherapy (BRT-HDR) endouterine 21 Gy (17-28 Gy) involves a number of sessions varying from 1 to 6, repeated 2 - 7 days apart and with an overall duration for each single session of a few minutes, preceded by the treatment plan preparation procedure.

Patients are checked 1 month after the end of treatment and symptoms and side effects are monitored. The therapeutic response to treatment and control of the disease over time is good; short-term relapses are absent.
