Abstract
Background: Squamous cell carcinoma is a common malignancy of the ocular surface. Surgical excision of the lesion is the most common intervention used to treat Squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva. Radiotherapy could provide an alternative for the treatment of Squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva, resulting in improved cosmetics and functional outcomes. This case study reports on, with informed consent from t Objective: he patient, the use of brachytherapy for recurrent SCC of the conjunctiva. Follow-up in this case study – evident by Results and Conclusion: disease control at 3 months post-treatment – provides a unique case to suggest brachytherapy implant as a viable option for the treatment of suitable cases of recurrent conjunctival squamous cell carcinoma
