ABSTRACT
A radiation recall reaction refers to an inflammatory reaction at previous irradiated areas subsequent to the administration of a variety of pharmacological agents. The skin is the major site of radiation recall reactons with the muscle and internal organs being less commonly affected. These reactions usually occur days to weeks after exposure to the causative agents. We report a case of gemcitabine-induced radiation recall dermato-myositis the developed in a female patient with a metastatic non-small cell lung cancer. She had received a palliative radiation therapy of 3900 cGy to the metastatic lesion on the femur shaft prior to chemotherapy. The pain, swelling and erythema of the left thigh resolved after the cessation of gemcitabine and the use of a systemic steroid.
