Core Tip	Radiotherapy is frequently employed as part of the multimodal treatment of pelvic cancers. Despite recent advances in irradiation techniques, acute and late- onset radiation-induced gastrointestinal toxicity, also known as pelvic radiation disease, is still being frequently reported. This review provides an up-to-date summary on medical and endoscopic approaches that have been evaluated with treating intent, focusing on the best available evidence, primarily randomized controlled studies.
