A 65-year-old male with lung adenocarcinoma received radiotherapy to the mediastinum and right upper lobe, followed by chemotherapy with gemcitabine. Radiation recall dermatitis developed in the area corresponding to the radiotherapy portal. This is one of just a few cases reported recently concerning radiation recall dermatitis stemming from gemcitabine.

Abstract Background: Radiation Recall Dermatitis is defined as an inflammatory reaction in a site of skin previously submitted to radiotherapy, and succeeding the administration of a drug or promoter agent. Manifestations range from mild to severe, resulting in tissue necrosis, treated with removal of the probable causative agent, daily dressings and surgical debridement of the necrotic area.Case presentation: The patient whose case is reported presented previous diagnosis of intraductal carcinoma in situ, performed lumpectomy and adjuvant radiotherapy and endocrinotherapy. After 1 year of treatment, develops sores suggestive of Herpes Zoster and starts treatment with Acyclovir, concomitantly with the onset of pain, fever, and in the previously irradiated area, breast hardening, skin infiltration and serosanguinolent discharge. Performed incisional biopsy to rule out radioinduced sarcoma, being treated with surgical debridement.Conclusions: Unlike the cases report of acyclovir drug’s eruption, the patient presented radiodermatitis restricted to the skin’s tissue in the previously irradiated area, suggestive of the radiation recall. This case report describes the acyclovir as a possible indutor of RRD, a rare condition that requires a better understanding of the disease installation mechanism and the adverse drugs effects after radiotherapy.
