Abstract
As an effective treatment method of tumors and other diseases, radiotherapy has been widely applied to clinical practices. After radiotherapy, about 95% of patients suffer from skin injuries to different extents, including acute and/or chronic radiodermatitis, or radiotherapy-related skin diseases, including cutaneous fibrosis, morphea, sclerosing panniculitis, bullous skin diseases, eosinophilic polymorphic and pruritic eruption, lichen sclerosus et atrophicus, angiosarcoma, atypical vascular lesions and radiation recall dermatitis. These skin injuries greatly affect the quality of life and treatment compliance of patients. This review briefly summarizes common and rare skin diseases induced by radiotherapy, so as to improve the understanding of radiotherapy-related skin diseases in clinicians. Key words: Skin diseases; Radiotherapy; Adverse reactions; Risk factors
