A patient was receiving the third of three fractions involving a vaginal cylinder. When the Physicist entered the room after the treatment had concluded, he noticed that the cylinder had fallen out of the vaginal canal and was lying on the treatment table. The patient was unaware of the cylinders' position, but remembers feeling an 'oozing sensation' at the beginning of the treatment. The treatment time was for 431.3 seconds and the total prescribed dose for the fraction was 600 centigray and the total dose for all three fractions was 1800 centigray. The patient was also receiving external beam therapy at a rate of 200 centigray for 26 fractions, for a total dose of 5200 centigray. The patient received the last fraction on October 16th.</br>The Agency is investigating the event.</br>The Governor's office is being notified of this event.</br>Arizona First Notice Event No.: 14-025 </br>A Medical Event may indicate potential problems in a medical facility's use of radioactive materials.
