A 57-year-old woman successfully underwent brachytherapy, a type of internal radiation therapy to treat cancer at the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH).
The mother of seven had stage 3b cervical cancer (headed to stage 4) that had spread to the pelvis.
It took about two hours by a multi-disciplinary team of doctors to manage the patient, led by Dr Jesse Opakas. The patient had been under review at the facility since March.
MTRH Chief Executive Officer Wilson Aruasa said it was the first time the facility was conducting brachytherapy, and on this particular case of a cancer diagnosed at an advanced stage.
