Abstract
Intratissue radiotherapy with Co60 sources in combination with gamma-teletherapy was used in 11 patients with penile carcinoma as organpreserving treatment. In this group of patients, 5-year relapse-free survival was 91.6%. Along with high survival rates, this treatment modality assured a high quality of life. Combined radiotherapy is most effective and advisable in patients with T1-T2.
