Résumé

The standard treatment for endometrial cancer is surgery, although depending on the risk factors, adjuvant radiation therapy may also be given. It is proposed for high-risk carcinomas for which an improvement in progression-free survival though not overall survival has been shown. However, despite the development of radiotherapy treatments with intensity modulation and image guidance, adjuvant radiation therapy remains toxic to the digestive system. We aimed to investigate the incidence of digestive toxicity and the presence of any predictive factors.
