Abstract
Studies salvage interstitial radiation therapy for recurrent prostate cancer, launched at the end of the XX century. In recent years, more and more attention is paid to high-dose-rate brachytherapy (HDR-BT) as a method of treating local recurrence.
The purpose of research – preliminary clinical results of salvage high-dose-rate brachytherapy applied in cases of suspected local recurrence or of residual tumour after radiotherapy.
Preliminary findings indicate the possibility of using HDR-BT, achieving local tumor control with low genitourinary toxicity.
