Patients with localized prostate cancer are treated with 3D radiotherapy using a rectal balloon catheter for internal immobilization of the prostate, thereby reducing the radiation dose to the dorsal rectal wall. The purpose of the study was to investigate clinical feasibility and the influence of acute rectal side effects and pre-existing hemorrhoids on patients' acceptance of the rectal balloon catheter.
