Management of acute or chronic skin injuries due to ionizing radiation is a complex challenge with injuries ranging from acute redness to chronic wounds that cannot be visualized. Chronic manifestations of radiation injuries may include radiation-induced fibrosis of the skin, nonhealing ulcers, osteoradionecrosis, compromised muscle flaps, and dehiscence of surgical closures. This activity describes the incidence, pathophysiology and clinical presentation of radiation-induced skin injury including cancer and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in its management.
