%X The appearance of symptomatic tumor-related vaginal bleeding and pain in advanced incurable cancer patients with pelvic gynecological malignancies remains a therapeutic challenge in oncological treatment. The aim of our analysis was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of palliative hemostatic radiotherapy.We retrospectively identified patients who had received palliative hemostatic radiotherapy (RT) at our institution between 2011 and 2023 and evaluated acute toxicity, local control, cessation of bleeding, and pain relief.In total, 40 patients with a median planning target volume of 804 cm3 were treated with a median total dose of 39 Gy in 13 fractions, resulting in 6‑month and 1‑year local control rates of 66.9 and 60.8
