Radiation Recall Myositis

Abstract We report a 55-year-old man who underwent treatment for resection of myxoid liposarcoma with radiotherapy and chemotherapy sequences. The patient had what we call radiation recall - it is a localized inflammatory reaction triggered by the use of cytotoxic agents. While usually limited to the superficial tissues and manifesting as a cutaneous reaction, cases of deeper inflammation involving the muscles have been reported with gemcitabine.
