ABSTRACT

La radiodermitis crónica tras el tratamiento con radioterapia es una secuela frecuente que puede resultar preocupante para el paciente. En la literatura especializada se han publicado pocos casos en los que se han utilizado el láser de colorante pulsado en el tratamiento de telangiectasias aparecidas tras radioterapia por cáncer de mama. Presentamos una paciente con radiodermitis en el cuello tras radioterapia por carcinoma de cavum. La paciente recibió 5 sesiones de láser de colorante pulsado (pulso de 3 ms, diámetro de impacto de 7 mm y energía entre 7 y 12 J/cm 2). Se realizaron estudios histológicos secuenciales. La respuesta al tratamiento fue muy buena con una desaparición casi completa de las lesiones. La paciente quedó muy satisfecha del resultado. El láser de colorante pulsado es un tratamiento seguro y eficaz de la radiodermitis crónica del cuello tras radioterapia


Chronic radiodermatitis after radiotherapy is a frequent sequela that may be worrying for the patient. Few cases have been published in the literature in which pulsed-dye laser has been used in the treatment of telangiectasias that appeared after radiotherapy for breast cancer. We present a female patient with radiodermatitis on the neck after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The patient received five sessions of pulsed-dye laser treatment (3 ms pulse duration, 7 mm spot size, fluence between 7 and 12 J/cm 2). Sequential histological studies were performed. The response to treatment was very good, with the lesions almost completely disappearing. The patient was very satisfied with the result. Pulsed-dye laser is a safe and effective treatment for chronic radiodermatitis of the neck after radiotherapy
