Abstract
Gold grain interstitial low-dose rate brachytherapy provides excellent local control and cosmesis in patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the lip. This technique provides an excellent option for patients that are elder or live remotely. It is particularly useful for lesions that are small, in previously radiated areas, or treated with prior surgery.
