Abstract:
The secondary neoplasms due to previous radiotherapy occur rarely. They develop within the radiation field or on its border. In this paper we present the case of soft tissue sarcoma that evolved 11 years after uterine cervix cancer radiotherapy. The long-term survival of patients subjected to radiotherapy is linked with the risk of secondary neoplasms appearance. That is why the repeated regular observation after radical treatment is recommended.
