Performing adjuvant therapy and therapy modality does not improve oncologic outcomes in intermediate and high-risk patients. However, radiotherapy reduced the risk of local recurrence by more than 50%. Vaginal brachytherapy was efficient as external beam radiotherapy. Therefore, vaginal brachytherapy should be used for these patients in order to reduce loco-regional recurrence even if it is not reported to be effective on disease-free survival.
