BACKGROUND: Patients with pelvic sidewall recurrences of cervical cancer have a dismal prognosis. Intraoperative radiation therapy (IORT) has demonstrated encouraging results. Patients have traditionally been excluded from IORT if they had distant metastases. CASE: A patient underwent radical tumor resection and high dose rate (HDR) IORT for a pelvic sidewall recurrence of cervical cancer. She also had metastatic disease in a para-aortic node. The patient has been followed for >20 months with no evidence of disease recurrence. CONCLUSIONS: HDR-IORT may be offered to select patients with recurrent cervical cancer and isolated metastatic para-aortic lymph nodes.
