Moderately hypofractionated radiation therapy for breast cancer: A Brazilian cohort study.

Background: Results from numerous clinical trials have led to a consensus that moderately hypofractionated radiation therapy is the ideal postoperative irradiation treatment plan in patients with breast cancer (BC). However, there are specific situations such as chest wall (with or without breast reconstruction) and regional node irradiation that still face obstacles in its widespread use. There is a lack of evidence supporting the use of moderately hypofractionated irradiation from the Latin American context.
