Evaluation of a balloon-based vaginal packing system and patient-controlled analgesia for patients with cervical cancer undergoing high-dose-rate intracavitary brachytherapy

Our results demonstrate that PCA is a feasible method for pain control for T&O brachytherapy. VBP and PCA are compatible with T&O brachytherapy and resulted in comparable if not better bladder and rectal dosimetry.
