Pacemaker Malfunction During Passive Proton Beam Therapy for Localized Prostate Cancer: Case Reports and a Literature Review
We report two cases of pacemaker malfunction occurring during proton beam therapy (PBT) for localized prostate cancer treatment. The first case involved mode changes in the pacemaker, while the second exhibited prolongation of the RR interval. Remarkably, both cases did not manifest significant clin...
