Beyond rectal protection, rectal spacers may facilitate curative radiation dosing and reduce the likelihood of local recurrence.

Collins stresses the oncological importance of local control, as local recurrences can lead to a "second wave of metastatic disease" that can ultimately cause death.

The key finding was that men who received rectal spacers had a 50% lower risk of biochemical failure.
