We greatly appreciate the letter by Gorayski et al. [1] in response to our case report entitled ‘Is proton beam therapy always better than photon irradiation? Lessons from two cases’ [2]. The aim of the article was to generate discussion and highlight the complexities when deciding on a suitable treatment modality for each of our patients. Proton beam therapy offers an opportunity to reduce the acute and late toxicities of treatment by lowering radiation dose to normal tissues.
