Significant late intestinal and urinary morbidity from external beam irradiation for
adenocarcinoma of the prostate has been a constant concern of both the urologist and the
radiation oncologist. We analyzed two large Radiation Therapy Oncology Group trials (7506
and 7706) using primary irradiation in the treatment of local or locoregional adenocarcinoma
of the prostate to assess morbidity via the Radiation Therapy Oncology Group scoring
scheme (grade 1–5). One thousand twenty patients were treated in total with a minimum …
