Purpose: To determine the effects of Fletcher Suit Delclos ovoid shielding on dose to the bladder and rectum during intracavitary radiotherapy for cervical cancer.

Because of technical difficulties during a previous dilation and curettage and the expense of long-term GnRH agonist therapy, the patient elected to undergo intracavitary radiotherapy.

In conclusion, the present study suggests that the high-energy transfer and the short-range cytotoxicity of the alpha-emitter 211At might be of benefit for intracavitary radiotherapy.
