Abstract:
Radiotherapy is one of the most important treatments of malignant tumors. However, after the radiotherapy combined with surgery and systemic therapy significantly improved the prognosis of cancer patients, somelong-term survivors after radiation exposure were diagnosed as second primary malignancies such as breast cancer, esophageal cancer, rectal cancer, bladder cancer, and sarcoma. This paper mainly discusses the radiotherapy-induced second primary neoplasms in terms of the dose-effect relationship, incubation period, influencing factors, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis.
