Abstract |
Multiple skull erosions which simulated bone mestatases developed in a 54-year-old patient who had been treated for favus by radiotherapy 40 years earlier. Radiation necrosis should be recognized and differentiated from defects and erosions due to malignant or infectious process in order to prevent unnecessary procedures and treatment.
