Surgery remains the cornerstone of the treatment for endometrial cancer, but brachytherapy plays a major role in the care of patients. In postoperative situations, brachytherapy is frequently indicated to prevent recurrences of the vaginal cuff. In case of medically inoperable patient, it can be, with or without external irradiation, an alternative treatment. In these two situations, techniques are radically different.
手术仍然是子宫内膜癌治疗的基石，但近距离放射治疗在患者护理中发挥着重要作用。在术后情况下，经常需要进行近距离放射治疗以预防阴道残端复发。对于医学上无法手术的患者，无论是否进行外照射，它都可以作为一种替代治疗方法。在这两种情况下，技术截然不同。
