Conclusion:
Vaginal stenosis is the most commonly reported toxicity among all studies. Severe toxicity (>Grade 2) has been reported to be low in most studies. Factors such as age, initial vaginal involvement, RT dose to vaginal dose points have been reported to be associated with vaginal toxicities. There is a need to adopt standardization of toxicity scoring methods as well as radiotherapy dose reporting.

Purpose/Objective:
Cervical cancer (CC) is the commonest gynecological cancer, and the second cause of all cancer deaths in Ghana. Although the majority of patients present with locally advanced disease, they can still be cured with external beam radiotherapy (EBRT) given concurrently with chemotherapy followed by brachytherapy (BT).
