Abstract

Following multidisciplinary discussion and wound healing, patients are counselled for postoperative radiotherapy by a clinical oncologist, then proceed to radiotherapy planning.

This audit aimed to determine our centre’s compliance with this guidance and identify any reversible factors causing delay.
