Delayed radiation tissue injury / osteoradionecrosis

Delayed radiation tissue injury refers to damage that can appear months or years after radiation therapy, when previously treated tissues have reduced blood supply and healing capacity. Osteoradionecrosis is a related complication where bone tissue, often in the jaw, becomes damaged and fails to heal properly. These problems may cause pain, wounds, stiffness, or exposed bone and often require specialized medical care.
