GONZALEZ GARCIA, Julio Lázaro et al. Late complications of the ocular radiotherapy. Rev Cubana Oftalmol [online]. 2016, vol.29, n.1, pp. 0-0. ISSN 1561-3070.

Radiotherapy is one of the therapeutic pillars used in oncology, but ocular damage may occur and this is a well-established phenomenon. The occurrence of complications remains the main concern for the application of radiotherapy, despite the use of new strategies to reduce complications and to improve the therapeutic rate. Here is a 63 years old female patient, who was diagnosed with epidermoid carcinoma of the conjunctiva, moderately differentiated G-II invader (T3N0M0) in the left eye. She was surgically treated and received supplementary superficial radiotherapy As a late complication, the patient presented with radiogenic cataract treated by surgery, in addition to conjunctival aneurysms in the treated area as well.

Palavras-chave : radiotherapy; cataract; conjunctive aneurysm; ocular radiotherapy toxicity; epidermoid carcinoma of the conjunctiva.
