Radiation-induced osteosarcoma of the mandible
Abstract
The article describes one of the most controversial topics of oncology – radiation-induced tumors, in particular, sarcomas of the head and neck region.
Radiation therapy is one of the most important methods of treating malignant neoplasms in modern oncology as an independent variant (possibly in combination with chemotherapy) and as adjuvant treatment after the operation. however, with the improvement of the results of treatment of cancer patients, more attention is devote to the side effects and complications of radiotherapy. one of the most rare and late complications are radiation-induced tumors that develop in irradiated tissues after a certain latent period.
