Radiation-Induced Malignancies: Our Experiences With Five Cases.
World Journal of Oncology 2016 December
Radiotherapy is one of the modalities of treatment of malignancies.

Mutagenesis of normal tissues is the likely basis for RIMs. Till date, RIM cannot be differentiated from primary cancers. We present a series of five patients who were treated at our institute between 2002 and 2016 and were subsequently diagnosed with RIM. Out of five patients, there were two cases of sarcomas, two of carcinomas and one neuroendocrine carcinoma of tongue (rare entity). Separate treatment guidelines are not available for RIM, so the treatment given was same as primary malignancies.
