Interstitial brachytherapy of the breast and penis Summary Aims: Interstitial brachytherapy (BT) is a therapeutic method with a proven history used in treatment of various cancers.

The prescribed dose was 34 Gy in 10 fractions applied twice a day. We evaluated 125 patients with minimum follow up of 2 years. 2) Twenty-eight patients with early penile cancer underwent HDR brachytherapy between 2002-2020. The prescribed dose was 18x 3 Gy applied twice a day. Results: 1) One hundred twenty-five patients were indicated for APBI, 12 patients of these did not receive this treatment (9.6 %) due to adverse prognostic factors in the final histology.
