Abstract:
This paper deals with 154 cases of radiation injury of skin, of which 57 cases were acute and 97 cases chronic. The injury was variously produced by linear accelerator, 60Co, X-ray, and B-ray. The injury doses varied from 10Gy to 40Gy in most cases, and the maximum dose was 180Gy. 41 cases (26.6%) were treated conservatively, and 113 cases (73.4%) with operative intervention. The overall curative rate was 87.7%. The diagnosis, clinical characteristics and treatment of radiation injury of skin were discussed. Surgical excision of injured skin and underlining tissues as much as possible, and repair with grafts of skin and other tissues are emphasized.
