Abstract

Transperineal interstitial prostate brachytherapy is increasingly used as a definitive treatment for early prostate cancer. After this treatment, seed migration to the heart is rarely frequently observed. The patient was experienced seed migration to the right ventricle after the treatment, it was difficult to diagnose in posteroanterior chest radiograph, but we were able to demonstrate it in multi-detector row computed tomography (MDCT).
