Abstract
Radiation injuries of the locomotive apparatus manifest themselves in three ways, each one of which may appear alone or in combination with the other two: 1. Radiation osteonecrosis 2. Growth disturbance due to epiphyseal injury. 3. Scar formation in the skin, fascia, and muscles The results of corrective operative procedures depend almost totally on the condition of the soft tissue. In those patients with a reasonable life expectancy, extensive operation procedures are indicated if they will restore or preserve function in the extremity.
