Radiation-Induced Obturator Nerve Injury in Cervical Cancer.

Cancer itself can have lifelong devastating effects, but radiation treatment can often also result in long-lasting neurological and musculoskeletal complications, leading to subsequent severe functional impairments. Physiatrists caring for the cancer rehabilitation population must be able to recognize and treat radiation-induced peripheral nerve injuries. This report presents a rare case of radiationinduced obturator neuropathy in a patient with recurrent cervical cancer.
