Abstract
Treatment of rectal carcinomas with endocavitary irradiation is now an established method in the United States and is an important advance in the curative management of patients with selected cancers of the rectum that should be available to all such patients.

Now that there are more centers using this method of treatment, an awareness of some of the problems and pitfalls encountered at Highland Hospital becomes relevant.
